    Do. Not. Come! I traveled 3 1/2 hours for their "Grape Stomp" event and it was absolutely a scam. To preface, I went to a true, authentic grape stomp in 2018 on Long Island and it was immaculate: barrels filled to the top with true wine grapes, everyone received their own barrel, got a picnic basket, etc. At Four Sisters, I was told we'd receive wine tasting, a wine glass to take home, bread, salad, chicken parm and chocolate cake and time to stomp grapes. I was intrigued at the low price ($42.50 per person) so I decided it would be a great day for my husband and I so we signed up. On our ticket, (which listed the wrong time - I also received another email confirmation with the wrong date) they wrote if you are more than 15 minutes late to the reservation, they'd try to accommodate you. Well, we left early, but hit MAJOR traffic on our way. I called the winery for over an hour and no one would pick up the phone. I wanted to make sure my day did not go to waste and they would still take us. Eventually, someone answered, and when I told them I've been calling for an hour, she rudely said "well, we've been busy". Lie. When we got there, the winery was empty and a woman worker was sitting alone in the front. Anyway, since we were 45 minutes late, we missed the beginning of the wine tasting, but our wine educator quickly caught us up. I will say that the wines we tried were delicious. Everyone that worked there was very nice and helpful, but I came for the grape stomp. Our food was brought out and the garlic bread was cooked on a mini cheeseburger slider bun. It was disgusting and weird. My chicken parm was awful and NOT what we are used to on Long Island. Then, instead of receiving a chocolate cake like I was told, we received box mixed cake that someone totally made from their home kitchen. It had to be Betty Crocker. Not from a bakery. Again, disgusting and weird. Then, the best part happens. We find out that we're all sharing one barrel for the grape stomp. LOL, WHAT?! WHO SHARES A BARREL WITH OTHER'S FEET! I'm glad I was not the only one pissed about this because I heard a few others saying this was misleading. Some left. I was pissed to say the least. My husband and I stomped in the barrel for at most 30 seconds each because everyone was waiting on line. I can't explain how awkward and uncomfortable it was. Did I mention that the grapes they threw in the barrel were literally store bought? I kid you not. I buy those grapes at my local supermarket. We were there for an hour and 15 minute tops. On the way out, I noticed how unkept and messy their vines looked (with was basically nonexistent). The outdoor bathrooms has bugs in them. I am currently sitting in 3 1/2 hours worth of more traffic. Buyer beware.

    Please be sure to follow CDC guidelines in regards to COVID and please do not visit restaurants if you or someone in your party does not feel well. I went here for a grape stomping class and it was absolutely fantastic! Four Sisters was named after the four daughters of Matty Matarazzo, who owns Matarazzo Farms. The vineyards were first planted in 1981 to see how well the grapes would grow. In 1984, the winery officially opened to the public. The class was held indoor and COVID restrictions were in place, such as social distancing and wearing masks. We were taught the 4 S of wine tasting: seeing, swirling, smelling, and sipping. We were taught to look for the clear layer on top of the wine, referred to as the halo. While swirling, we looked at the legs, or how long the wine sticks to the side of the glass which shows its alcohol content and how sweet it is. Swirling also introduces oxygen into the wine, which enhances the taste. The last S, sipping, is for the taste, which is usually revealed by the 3rd sip. We sampled 9 wines, which were available for purchase at the winery for very reasonable prices. After sampling, lunch was served: chicken parm with salad and bread and chocolate cake for dessert. The grape stomping was so unique and unlike anything I've ever done. It was indoor because it was still cold out, but everyone was distanced and masks were worn. The grapes were cold and mushy, but I enjoyed it so much! When I finished, wipes were provided and my feet were kinda cold from the grapes. Interestingly, they also felt so soft and clean, like I'd just gotten a pedicure. This was such a great event and worth the drive. I had some amazing wines, my favorites being Merrill Blush, Beaver Creek Red, and Holiday Seasoned. If you're thinking about doing the grape stomping or just visiting the winery, I highly recommend it!

    I hate to do this since the staff were nice, but this grape stomping event was a hot mess. Where to begin? My friend and I anxiously awaited for this day since we purchased tickets more than 2 months ago. After all, it isn't everyday you get to make wine the old fashioned way by stomping on grapes in a barrel! We were excited to mimic the I Love Lucy episode! For $37, it would include a tour, wine tastings, a meal, souvenir wine glass and the grape stomping. Everything we envisioned was the total opposite. When we arrived (note--it is quite far, near the Delaware Water Gap), we were shown to a table where my friend and I sat across from one another. It was a table of 8 and there were, in addition, 5 other tables. We quickly became friendly with two lovely women who were also friends. We got a short intro about how the vineyard got its name in 1984 and has been operational ever since, now expanding to the new generation of the family. We each had a sheet outlining the wines we would taste according to category--dry, semi-dry, sweet and dessert. There were 11 in total. I may not be a wine expert, but there was not one wine that I could see myself having an entire glass. Each was worse than the previous one. Among the 4 of us, we described some of them as Welch's grape, cough syrup and just plain odd. It even failed the numbers theory--surely one out of the 11 had to be good, right? Nope. Our meal was served soon after we were done with the tastings. Wine by the glass or bottle was available for purchase with the meal, otherwise, it was warm water. The meal was atrocious. Spaghetti and meatballs for everyone else but my friend and I requested pasta with vegetables. The pasta seemed to be more than al dente (stuck together) and the few pieces of vegetables were oily and overcooked. Bread and salad were served along with the pasta. My high school cafeteria served better food and they were bad. Dessert was also served and resembled a dry, inedible 5 day old chocolate cake. Sorry but it was terrible. Dessert wine was served with the cake that we didn't eat---blueberry, raspberry and strawberry. Again, not good. Once done with our meal, which was held indoors in a carpeted and paneled room, we were split into two groups for the tour and grape stomping. The tour was 10 minutes and we were shown the fiberglass vats which housed the grapes for wine production. The final part was the grape stomping---totally unlike what my friend and I visualized. One small barrel where groups or pairs took turns to step on previously smashed grapes. There was a rinsing basin to wash off your feet. My friend and I declined to participate in this activity as it seemed very unsanitary. We couldn't fathom one barrel for the 20 people waiting. Ridiculous. We left 30 minutes earlier with souvenir glass in hand in disbelief at how poorly executed this event was. Everything was bad across the board--wine, food, tour and the stomping. Such a let down. Do yourself a favor and avoid (we grabbed some real food and wine once we left).

    It's been a while from our last visit and it was overdue. Check in procedure has changed due to covid but aside from that the overall wine tasting experience was good. Our wine hostess Melissa was wonderful, she gave us plenty of information regarding the wines we'd be tasting and the grapes used for the process of the specific wine. Today's entertainment was provided by Joe Izen, a truly gifted musician who opened for Joe Cocker and Richie Havens in his early days. We ordered a cheese and meat platter along with a bottle of Cayuga after the tasting. A very nice place to spend a sunny afternoon chillaxing with my plus1.

    I like sweet wines and Four Sisters definitely had their fair share of them. Tastings are free here. I came on a Sunday with a friend when they were holding a fall festival. There was no charge to walk in and they had live music. I don't know if there tastings are normally done outside or if it was because of the festival but because it was so cold we spent barely any time here. They have an area inside where you can sit but it's kind of like sitting in a room in someone's house. There was nobody sitting in here and no music. Just a couple of tables with chairs. This winery is currently for sale (the owner is looking to spend more time with his grandchildren), so I'm not sure how much longer it will be operating.

    Very friendly and helpful staff, we came during the winter and it looks like their outdoor area is much nicer. Will have to try again when it's warmer. Went the the Cayuga which was a semi sweet white.

    The hospitality was great, however the ambience of the indoor winery was lacking. They let us bring our own chips and salsa which was a plus.

    If you want to go on a gorgeous drive through some of NJ's gorgeous farming areas then this is your destination. We were hoping to see the leaves at their peak but were a week or so too early for that. Previous reviews seem to be focused more on the taste of the wine and less on the beauty of the vineyard. The tasting is free, but it is a tasting. Taste a swallow of your wine, then buy the bottle to enjoy on the property. We tried 2 or 3 wines and chose our favorite. The wines are sweet so if that's not your style be warned. We bought our bottle $14 and a cheese platter $5 and grabbed a seat on the deck overlooking the vineyard. The winery will open the bottle and supply you with glasses. The view was postcard pretty. We took a walk in the fields and had a very relaxing time.

    Rotted apples

    Every apple on every tree was horribly rotted! $15 per bag knowing you don't have a bag full to sell! Good entertainment, cute farm, could be so much better if it was taken care of! Sorry but never going back! So many better apple orchards out there!

    Wine, wine, give me a generous pour! With two close and dear friends for a day trip to Belvidere, NJ, we imbibe white, red, semi-sweet, sweet, Rosé and specialty wines. For thirty years this NJ winery is family own and operated on premises. Four Sisters Winery is named after the owner's four daughters to finance all four higher education studies (both Bachelor's and Master degrees). On a Saturday afternoon we were given a tour of their cellar and vineyard, which here lies eight acres of wine and fiber glass barrels. The tour and lecture is very informative and resourceful as we imbibe the before sulfites are added in barrel and after processed in bottled form. The owners also own a 250 acres farm land growing fruit and vegetables aside from a winery. Paid tasting + wine glass purchase cost for one adult totals approx. $14.00. I personally have a small collection of local NJ and NYS winery and vineyard glasses in my curio cabinet. Staff was very attentive to our tastings and questions. Their wine list was very resourceful outlining Four Sisters' entire wine selection with bottled price, brief description, year separating from wines, reds, semi-sweet, sweet, and specialty. Free crackers, bread are available for cleaning one's palette. Parking is ample and facilities are clean. Note: Be sure to check-in via Yelp's mobile application by way of smartphone as a offer is available.
