Cape May Winery & Vineyard
Booking for Fridays November - March for groups of 8-12
Cape May Winery & Vineyard is a family-friendly winery and vineyard located in Cape May County, New Jersey, offering a mix of tastings, tours, and seasonal events that showcase locally produced wines.
The venue operates a production facility and Port Cellar used for intimate and educational experiences, and hosts semi-private group tables and walk-up wine bar service for social gatherings.
Available experiences include large-group tables (up to 12 guests), 90-minute semi-private tastings, an exclusive Winemaker Tour limited to 18 guests, educational wine tastings, and seasonal Grill Nights featuring live music and chef-driven menus.
Many experiences include a keepsake glass — Riedel stemware for select tours and a CMW stemless glass for group tastings — and some special events offer accessibility accommodations such as scheduled ASL interpretation.
Bookings run seasonally, with specific large-group offerings available April through October and alternate scheduling November through March. The winery emphasizes small-group capacity limits, guided tastings led by winemakers, and transparent information about inclusions to help groups plan celebrations, corporate outings, and private gatherings.
Menus feature tapas and grilled seafood and steak pairings created by the onsite chef for summer events. Past pop-up dinners have sold out, demonstrating strong local demand and community support.
Onsite staff provide knowledgeable guidance, and tangible inclusions like keepsake glassware and curated pairings underscore the winery's commitment to quality and guest satisfaction, and lasting memories.
