Can you think of a better way to spend a breezy afternoon than walking through grape vines, sipping wine, and learning about the inner workings of a winery? Luckily, one gorgeous seaside vineyard offers tours and tastings of their award winning Delaware wine.
Nassau Valley Vineyard is located on Delaware's outer coastal plain - the perfect spot for growing wine grapes!
This gorgeous vineyard grows Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes. To create their line of 14 wines, they also use Eastern Shore grown grapes and fruit to supplement their own produce.
Then, head to the tasting room and get ready to try some of the best wines in Delaware! Tastings cost $7 per person, and you'll get to take home your tasting glass, too!
After you've tasted the wines, determine your favorite and pick up a few bottles! The helpful, knowledgeable staff will guide you and help you pick out the perfect match.
Nassau Valley Vineyards is known throughout the country for making award winning wine. Their Meadows Edge blend took Gold at the Amenti del Vino International Wine Competition, and their Cape Rose was a Gold Medal winner at the San Francisco International Wine Competition!
The beautiful vineyard is a great place to relax and sip wine while you enjoy a picnic with friends or family. There's no better way to spend your time than by enjoying Delaware wine!
Self-guided tours are free, and tastings are first-come, first-serve. Visit the Nassau Valley website, here, to learn more about planning your tasting and tour.
