Made the mistake of visiting on a rainy Saturday - it was busy. Like, screaming loud half-drunk bachlorette loud. We had reservations for tastings, and got stuck with server Sam, who barely made an effort to say what her meager pours even were. She disappeared numerous times, mostly talking to other staff behind the bar. Big thumbs down on service and atmosphere. Beneduces needs some remedial service training and to perhaps rethink the beerhall vibe. read more

Wines are very good, atmosphere is excellent, they provide beautiful outdoor seating and a bandstand for entertainment . No food available, but small bites I.e cheeses crackers charcuterie etc A beautiful winery in a beautiful location highly recommend read more

What a find this was! I happened to be in the area to get some coffee which turned into a day of visiting a new food place and ending up here. First of all this county is beautiful as you drive you see all the nice farms and landscapes eventhough the trees are bare. Once we entered the premise of the Vineyard you see how neat and welk kept the location is. We walked inside and we're greeted by a staff member. He explained the menu and then proceeded to let us find a seat. I will preface that I am very conscious about masks and indoor dining specially at this time where things are getting worse again. This place had very well spaces tables in a giant indoor room and ceiling fans that kept the room relatively cool and moved the air very well. There are outdoor tables with heat lamps but no one seemed to be outside dining. The staff did not wear mask. It did not deter me but I wish staff would gauge client comfort and wear one. The staff member who helped us was very nice and knowledgeable. He walked us through our tasting which was a paired with a board of cheeses for each wine, peasant loaf and slices of salame meat. Everything was superb. The pairing was $30 per person which I thought it was reasonable. Definitely recommend! read more

Cute vineyard with great staff! My friend booked our Local Pairing tasting in advance, which included 5 wines, pairings of cheese and salumi, and a wine glass to take home. We were seated right away at a high-top table in their huge indoor space. The interior had more of a brewery vibe to it - industrial but still a warm ambiance. Our first of two hosts got us started with the cheese/salumi board and our first wine, which was the Acqua Pazza. The cheeses were all very tasty and I loved that they were locally made. The Acqua Pazza was very unique, both in color and taste. It was definitely cool to try, but I wasn't obsessed with it. My favorite of the wines were easily the two reds - the Pinot Noir and Blaufränkisch. I'm typically more of a red wine fan anyway, but the whites here really didn't do it for me. Overall though, we had a fun time and service was excellent. Would return in the summer when the grounds are open! read more

Such an awesome winery, honestly one of the best ones I've been to NJ When you walk in, it's just gorgeous. All of the barrels out on the floor and the huge bar; everything is so open and bright and I've only been in the winter but I've the event outside the summer are so fun I went for my birthday and did their Local Pairings which was five of their wines along with locally made meats and cheeses. I know their meats and cheeses are not directly from them but they were so delicious and went so well with the wines. My favorite wine was definitely the chambrusco during the tasting. It was something so different and I love red wine but adding a bubbly element made it really full finishing and a little sweeter which I enjoyed a lot. My favorite wine overall was their Mangione and I got a bottle of that to go which is already totally gone! Sarah took care of us and she was wonderful; incredibly knowledgeable on the flight she was pouring for us and made the experience very fun Cannot wait to come back in the nicer weather! Or as soon as possible lol! read more

Beneduce Vineyards helped me plan/host my 10 year high school reunion. We reserved The Oasis for the event and it was perfect! Kara was extremely helpful and very responsive when it came to planning all of the logistics. When it came to the day of the event, George stepped up to bring everything together and supply us with state of the art charcuterie, taking pride in the whole selection. Our bartender, Alex, was very helpful and sweet from start to finish. The space was clean and warm (on a 30 degree November afternoon) and setup perfectly for the occasion. I'd highly recommend utilizing this space for anyone looking to hold a private event with wine/food options. I'd be happy to come back for the 20 year! read more

Delicious wines, nice ambiance and great service. Rich, our wine tasting server was great, very friendly, informative and funny. We enjoyed the 2021 Dry Riesling the most, it was excellent, not dry at all and we are Cabernet drinkers. We will definitely be back with friends when the weather is warmer and there is live music to listen too. read more

I really loved this winery! We celebrated a friends birthday last weekend and it was so fun! It was a little chilly but they had the fire pits going and the live band was so great! They allow you to bring your own food which was perfect! You should have a resi prior since they sell out quickly it seems on weekends! They did also have a food truck (I think it was pizza) but that changes! Would recommend! Loved it! read more

Beautiful vineyard, winery and group gathering place. Loved the live music and the fire pits. Will not disappoint.

November 16th you hosted a band by the name of "Remember When" did that take me back in time. Everyone had a great time singing and dancing. Music from the 50's, 60's and 70's. A good time was had by everyone at our table. The wine selection was perfect. Please let me know when this band will play again....Oh and by the way I did remember when! read more

First time here . Got a glass to taste the 2017 Shotgun red which is an off dry red wine. It's pretty good for a local NJ WINE. This is the sweetest wine they produce( not too sweet and not too dry) easy to drink. I can taste the cherry liquor and fig in it. I like it so much and travelled so far so I ended up getting 4 bottles . We brought our own sandwiches ( yes, it's allowed)to pair with the wine and enjoyed our lunch in their covered outdoorsy patio. They also sell local cheese, salami and honey but didn't get them. I'll save them for next time so I have something else to try. I see people bringing their own bread and buying their cheese and salami to make sandwiches. Would def come back again read more

Beneduce Vineyards is a Winner!!! We stumbled upon Beneduce, coming home from another winery. We met Mike (the winemaker), Amy and Kara. Amy gave us a wonderful background on the winery. Interestingly, she mentioned that Beneduce Vineyards was on the same latitude as Austria and Hungary. Basically having the same style of grapes. She poured our first couple of samplings and Kara poured the latter. We sampled a 2020 Gewurz Pet Nat, 2020 Chardonnay, 2021 Dry Rose, 2018 Pinot Noir and an 2018 Blaufrankisch. All of them were wonderful! It was a difficult decision what to buy. LOL... We decided upon the Gewurz Pet Nat (Very sparkly in taste) and the Chardonnay (Very buttery in taste). Next time, I'll definitely buy the Blaufrankisch. This one is a signature wine! The winery does have a menu with a local cheese platter, prepackaged food items, raw honey and fresh baguettes. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating has lots of tables with umbrellas. We can't wait to return to try and buy more of the wines! read more

The wines here are some of the best I've had in New Jersey. The entire grounds are so nice for a fun winery day. I love the cute dog that kinda hangs out and around. I highly recommend both the whites and reds. I have yet to try one here I have not liked and that kind of wild since some winery's in jersey are hit or miss. Definitely worth the trip. Not to mention all the staff are so sweet and helpful. read more

IMO the best winery and vineyard in NJ. They entire complex is incredible from the vines themselves, the taste room, equipment, staff and outdoor entertainment setup. Rain, shine, winter, summer they can accommodate. It's typically BYOF bring your own food but there's usually a food truck on the weekends. I believe they also just won best wine in NJ (I just forget which bottle). Oh and it's also dog friendly if they're leashed!! read more

It's a hidden gem in the beautiful NJ countryside. They have a great selection of wines that will please any palate, and the grounds are simply magnificent. Food trucks are there on weekends with a nice variety throughout the season. Reservations are necessary during the summer, and the setup is flawless. You are told your assigned table when you drive up to park, and it's a short walk to the tasting room to grab a glass or bottle of wine to enjoy. You are welcome to bring your own food (but not alcohol). read more

We had a fantastic time at Beneduce Vineyards. We were deciding between two vineyards but Beneduce won by making it easy to book our tasting online! We arrived about 15 minutes late and we called ahead but there was no problem. Our table was ready when we got there and our wine tasting commenced immediately. We tasted about 4-5 wines starting with whites into reds. All of them were delicious but my favorite was the Chardonnay. It was fantastic and not too dry. We bought some of the local cheeses and bread instead of getting the prefixed charcuterie board. Everything was tasty. Our awesome server Penny was funny and informative and we were happily able to keep our wine glasses! Overall, the atmosphere of the winery is great. The main building is large and the outside garden is beautiful. There were various celebrations going on so it is a good place for large parties to celebrate special occasions. I will be back! read more

I came here with my family for Father's Day. Beautiful place - live music and a really good food truck - Mrs. Fu's. Looks like it would be great on a Saturday night... fire pits, nice patio etc. My only gripe is that it's quite expensive. It's $10 per person cover change, which seems reasonable but doesn't include anything like a glass of wine. The wine prices are expensive considering you are buying direct from a winery. Most are $30+ There's so many good wines available these days under $20, not sure of the business model here or why prices are so high. I will visit again but not as often as I would like. read more

This is my favorite vineyard in NJ. They have the best wine and service. They have a cute patio outside and also lawn seating with umbrellas. The inside area is also nice to sit in too! Whenever we want wine we come here with friends and family! They offer glasses to use with a small fee and if returned they give you the money back. You also have an option to buy a glass or a bottle which is great. They also have wine flights. read more

Not a fan of dry wine but the property was very beautiful. The staff were very friendly and there is food onsite.

Fantastic experience. We had a large group attending (48 pax), and the reservation process from start to finish was seameless. Very organized and friendly team, delicious wine, beautiful premises, and a great ambiance. Love the place to spend time with the family, lawn games, live music on Sunday picnics, food truck on site and very affordable. This place made it into my top 10. Wonderful experience! read more

Great place to enjoy the day. Went with a small group of 6 friends. Beautiful grounds. We did the Group Therapy Sat event and it was a great time. We reserved a 'crush pad' table and it's under a roof close to the bar. I would have preferred the Stone Patio - it was a nicer area to sit with tables and a fire pit. There was one food truck, and the food was good but there was a long line and it would have been nice to have a second truck. Over all, wine was good, music wasn't too loud in the back and it was a great day. read more

Great service, really friendly ambiance, we enjoyed the cheese pairing very much. Afterwards we enjoyed live music outside while we had lunch. Will definitely be back read more

Good to know: Swampy Vale earth-oven fired pizza here first Friday and Saturday of each month, you'll want to catch it. If there's a wait - as there will be on busier evenings, and well worth it, too - go pick out a wine inside and bring your glass out to enjoy the grounds. Great atmosphere, wine and food in a beautiful setting at any hour. Love having this hidden gem just up the road. read more

Very nice winery. They charge admission apparently after 3 for live entertainment. You can bring your own picnic, no food sold. read more

The girls and I got together for a wine tasting. It cost about $30 a piece for the tasting of 5 wines and you could buy a glass or bottle if you choose. When we arrived we parked in their parking area. We had a reserved area because we paid prior to. Our host was Robert and he was good and had good energy. There was some really good tasting wines that we tried. They also served a cheese and bread platter $15 per person. I didn't have that but the girls enjoyed it. We had a good time but the only downfall was we got there at 2pm and they were supposed to close at 5pm but they failed to tell us there was some show they were having and they were closing early. We didn't get to spend more time which sucked. read more

The wines were fine and the charcuterie boards had a nice sampling. My only complaint was the manager of the winery. She had an attitude with us because my friend made a comment the the pour was light. She didn't seem very knowledgeable or she just was not in The mood to talk about the wines. The host at the table behind us was on point and truly wish we had him. read more

Hunterdon County desperately needed a gem like this. Came here with a girlfriend a few weeks ago and spent a Saturday afternoon listening to live music under a table with an umbrella. This vineyard is a BYOS (Bring Your Own Snacks)! Go inside to buy a bottle of wine and come outside to find a table to enjoy everything at. Wine glasses are $3 each-- you can keep them and bring them home as keepsakes, or when you're done drinking just return them for your $3 back. read more

Overview: We had my partner's 30th Birthday here on a Sunday in June 2021 and we had a great time. We were in Oasis B, which is in a sort of green house. Inside they have a large number of plants and several produce fruit trees/bushes. We had a tropical themed party, so the plants and flowers matched the theme perfectly. It was pretty cool to see tangerines and lemons on the plant. The Oasis B is not air-conditioned, and it was incredibly hot out. Luckily there was four or so large fans that were set up to circulate the air and provide some relief from the heat. Overall, I would come back. Staff: They were truly awesome, and one of the highlights. The staff we interacted with were nice, fun, and incredibly helpful. I very much appreciated all they did and they really helped make it a great time for everyone. We were even able to get a tour and see the grape vines up close. They also helped me carry in my cooler full of ice, water bottles, ice tea, etc., which was incredibly appreciated. The Staff member who conducted the wine tasting and then served the wine afterwards was named Brad and I cannot begin to state how much we appreciate all he did for us. He was very knowledgeable about the wine, and very helpful in making the event live up to what we envisioned. I really appreciate how everyone helped make the event a great success. Location: Not far off of 78, it was pretty easy to get to. The surrounding land is gorgeous and you get some very pretty views from the vineyards. It looks like they had live music and a food truck in the general outside area. I also saw corn hole boards set up outside. They were very busy on Sunday, so I would make sure you plan your trip out in advance. Private Event: They provide the space, wine glasses, the staff/pourer/wine historian, tables, chairs, fans, garbage can, recycling can, wine, and the general ambiance. They also provided a container of water and some cups. We were responsible for our own decorations, balloons, cakes, appetizers, food (cold only, if hot food you need to hire one of the affiliated caters), cooler, trays, non-alcoholic beverages (we brought water bottles, ice tea, and Pepsi), board games, etc. They were very kind and kept our cake for us inside so it did not melt (this was deeply appreciated as it was so hot). Fortunately my partner's friend is an excellent party planner so it looked awesome. They provide you with a very pretty base on which you can build your own party as you would like. Wine: Pretty good, though if you are a sweet or sweeter wine person, there's not a lot in that direction. The wine tasting was 5 wines, the Riesling, the Gewurztraminer, the Rose, the Blaufrankisch, and the Shotgun Red. It was so hot outside that after the tasting we mostly we drank the white wines and the Rose. For the red wines, I found the Shotgun Red to be very good, and I got a bottle to take home to pair with some Sunday gravy, when its not in the 90's. I also tried the Acqua Pazza, which was tart and l got a nice lemony note for it. It was lightly sparkling, plus cold and refreshing, so a nice change after the red wines. I also tried the 2020 Rose Pet Nat, which was good, just not my particular favorite. read more

Vineyard continues to improve customers experience. However, one thing they need to do is invest in umbrellas for every table. Needed on hot sunny days. Most already have them, so don't think it'll be hard for them to buy a few more, especially since they make so much money from their customers. read more

$15 deluxe tastings include 5 pours of their choice, locally sourced cheese, bread and salami. For $5 you can get 5 pours of their choice. The pours here are very generous. The weekend I went they had a tent setup with heat and live music. You could buy wine and food inside and grab a table inside the tent. Inside you can grab a seat at the bar and enjoy a tasting or they will also do tastings at the high top tables. It's really nice to have the option to sit and enjoy your tasting and not be rushed. The grounds are beautiful here and there is a nice patio area outside to enjoy in warmer weather. read more

Love this place. To start the location in Hunterdon county is idyllic, no better way to spend a late summer evening. First Friday of the month is locals night, no cover, background music, buy their wine and either bring your own food, the house cheese plate or buy from the 'food truck' - this Friday it was a traveling pizza oven from Swampy Vale Farm. Saturday is group therapy which is a cover charge and live music after 5pm. Sunday is like family picnic day I believe but I haven't done it. Relax in one of 4 locations, inside in the fantastic hall, the covered area next to the hall, the firepit area which we really like and the grass area by the stage. There is also an outdoor games area. Last but not least the wine, the chardonnay, riesling, pinot noir and super tuscan are all good, especially for NJ. The only one I didn't like was the low alcohol Italian drink. This place is an evening well spent. read more

This was our 4th visit to Beneduce over the years and each time we ask ourselves, "Why don't we come here more often?" We sat up on the patio on a Sat. evening, next to the big fire pit, enjoying the great views and music. It's simply a great venue- indoors and out. The staff are so friendly and very attentive; its run really well. You can order from the food trucks, pick up cheese/crackers/breads/jams inside or bring your own food. Looking forward to going back! read more

The vibe in here-especially around Christmas holidays-is amazing,it was perfect for our date-night. The service was good,though a tad slow in the end due to other clients holding our server up with their stories :) we did wine tasting and the experience was different than what we've normally had in other wineries where you'd typically get to choose your wines to taste; here it's a selection of seasonal 5 wines and the server comes to fill your glass with each one after you finished your last one,giving a bit of an overview of each. Neither of the wines impressed us enough (unfortunately) to take a full bottle home (for the price,there are definitely better wines out there,in my humble opinion),but I will consider coming back here in the summer,to check out a new selection of "summer" wines,or maybe even have a bottle on the spot. Overall,really enjoyed our visit here-and like I said,the ambiance was top-notch,and I only wish more vineyards in NJ/NY would aim for this as a benchmark read more

Would not go back. Booked for Mothers day (2024) and as many know the weather was horrible. At 11:00 a.m it was still pouring and the event started at 12:00 noon . During the day it was misty, mind you this event was only outside and we had no cover and I AM CERTAIN THE GROUNDS WERE A MUD PIT . Beneduce decided not to cancel the event and tell everyone if you do not come there are no refunds . The safety of my 80 year old mother and other seniors are more important then them keeping our 150.00 deposit . You would think it would not only be about money and they would have given people a choice to come our cancel being the grounds were soaking wet and it misted during the day . I will find other wineries to go to in the future as clearly these people do not care about the safety of others. read more

My bf and I came here on Weds before Thanksgiving and we were able to get seated right away without a reservation. We did the wine tasting which comes with the complimentary wine glass to take home! The wines were all really good and the server was very knowledgable. We also bought the salami and crostini and the server provided plates. We met George, the winemakers dog. He was very friendly and kept eyeing our food! We really enjoyed the wine and our time here. We ended up buying two bottles of wine (Cabernet Sauvignon / Malbec & Blaufränkisch). We would most definitely visit again. read more

I came here on a Friday with three other people and a Siberian Husky. We brought our own food and purchased 3 bottles of wine (three windows white, cabernet+malbec, and the shotgun red). We enjoyed our time there while sitting at the patio. It was nice and not crowded since it was on a Friday. My favorite of the 3 was the three windows white, and for the red was the cabernet+malbec. I would suggest passing on the shotgun red unless you are new to red wine since it is a lighter drink. read more
