Swansea Vineyards, Family winery in Shiloh, New Jersey
Swansea Vineyards is a winery on 12 acres of land growing multiple grape varieties and producing wine regularly. The operation has access to shelves in liquor stores throughout the state.
The vineyard began on former farmland in 1994 and opened publicly in 2007. This shift from traditional crops to wine production marks a change in how the land has been used.
The name comes from Welsh settlers who once established themselves in the area. The owners work with the community to operate the business respectfully within Shiloh's traditional environment.
The winery sits on Main Street and is easy to reach by car. Visitors should know that hours vary by season, so it helps to check ahead before planning a visit.
The operation is one of few in New Jersey to produce wine from Lakemont and Reliance seedless table grapes. These varieties are normally grown for eating fresh, making this an unusual product in the local wine scene.
