Who We Are

Since 1996 when we made our first commercial batch of wine, our family has grown our passion into our livelihood. Today, we are New Jersey's top wine brand with sales in over 750 retail locations in the state. Our wines have won double gold medals from the Indy International Wine Competition, Finger Lakes International Wine Competition along with the NJ Governor's Cup and dozens of prestigious awards.

Based in Shamong, New Jersey, in the center of the Pine Barrens, Valenzano Family Winery maintains 48 acres of farms where we proudly grow our vineyards. We also look locally and nationally, sourcing the freshest and finest fruits imaginable to craft world-class wines that taste best when paired with the right foods and friends.

"We believe that the success of our brand is since we don't get too caught up in meaningless accolades. We make wines that are original, of the highest quality at an affordable price. Valenzano is known for setting trends - not copying them! We also produce a line of specialty wines that have introduced an entirely new generation and market of people to wines. Our customers appreciate the efforts we put into our winery and they know that we are the type of business who will do what is necessary to keep our customers happy", says Theresa Valenzano who has been part of the winery tasting room experiences since the 1990's.

Valenzano's non-traditional feel and unorthodox take on the wine industry is what attracts so many new wine drinkers to their winery and tasting room. Not everyone wants to visit a hoity-toity wine tasting where the wine tender makes you feel uninformed and uneducated. At Valenzano Winery, the tasting room staff is lively, with energetic winetenders who will entertain and inform visitors that the key to enjoying wine and food is to find a wine you like, find a food you like, and most importantly find a person you 'like' that you can share with. We leave our competitors the chore of over-thinking wine tasting is more than it should be.

Valenzano's goals moving forward are to expand our vineyards and our commitment to south Jersey agriculture while developing new wines and tastes for our loyal customers. Anthony emphasizes, "Our new winery technology, processing & packaging equipment have helped us to increase quality while at the same time reducing costs." This is a savings which they are happy to pass onto their customers. Valenzano Winery encourages family and friends to visit for a complimentary wine tasting where visitors can relax in their tasting room with great wine and stimulating conversation.
