Classically Cool!

WE POUR RAIN OR SHINE…

4JG's Orchards & Vineyards is a well-regarded family-owned winery in Colts Neck, New Jersey, known for its intimate atmosphere and commitment to producing high-quality wines. Here's what makes it a wonderful destination:

  • Award-Winning Wines: The vineyard, which has been in the Giunco family for over 60 years, is focused on producing small-lot, estate wines from grapes grown on their 40 acres. They are known for their award-winning wines, and their dedication to traditional winemaking techniques and good farming practices has been recognized both locally and internationally.

  • Welcoming and Intimate Setting: Customers often praise the cozy and friendly atmosphere. The staff is known for being attentive and creating a welcoming environment. The venue offers outdoor seating, a tented area, and fire pits in cooler weather, providing a perfect backdrop for a relaxing afternoon.

  • Diverse Experience: In addition to wine tastings, 4JG's provides a complete experience. We often feature live music on weekends, and allow guests to bring their own small picnics to enjoy with their wine. 4JG’s also have a Christmas tree grove during the holiday season. Great wines to sip by the fire while you choose, we cut your perfect holiday tree!

  • High-Quality Offerings: Visitors appreciate the generous wine tastings, which allow them to explore a range of wines. The vineyard produces a variety of wines, including dry reds and whites, as well as unique blends. Some of their notable varieties include Chambourcin and Cayuga.

  • Guided Walking Tours at 1:30pm. The guided walk begins with a warm welcome from the vineyard owner or a knowledgeable expert. As you step onto the path, the scent of the earth and the leafy green vines fills the air. The guide leads the way through the meticulously tended rows, inviting you to take in the serene beauty of the landscape. As you walk, the guide shares the history of the vineyard, telling the story of the land and the family who have cultivated it. You'll learn about the unique terroir—the combination of soil, climate, and topography—that gives the grapes their distinct character. The guide points out subtle details, like how the vines are trained on the trellises and how different grapes thrive in specific areas of the vineyard. The walk is not just a tour; it's a living lesson. You'll hear about the challenges and rewards of farming, the impact of the seasons on the harvest, and the sustainable practices used to care for the land. You may even be invited to taste a few grapes directly from the vine, experiencing the raw, natural flavor before it becomes wine.

  • Family History and Philosophy: The winery is named after the four owners, all with the initials "JG," and is a testament to the family's deep farming roots in Monmouth County. Their philosophy is to use only the best grapes grown on their farm to go into the bottle, ensuring quality and a genuine "estate" style.
