A grand opening celebration of the new Angelico Winery, located at 20 Hamp Road, Lambertville, N.J., will be held from noon to 6 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20.
The new venture is the culmination of three years’ work by Ottavio and Lily Angelico. Together, they purchased 3.5 acres outside Lambertville in Hunterdon County to grow their own grapes. Ottavio, learned to craft wines in his native Italy and wanted to continue his passion for creating fine wine locally.
“From the vineyard to the barrels, bottle to glass,” Angelico remarked, “our process uses the traditional methods from the Old World so we offer the highest quality we can possibly give to our customers.”
On Aug. 20, visitors to the new winery may drink wines made by the Angelico family from regional grapes as they wait for their own harvest. Along with the assorted wines, cheeseboards will be available for sale, or guests may purchase wood-fired pizza provided by Antimo’s Kitchen. There will be live music from noon to 5 p.m.
To book a wine tasting, held at the top of every hour noon to 5 p.m., reservations are required and can be made through the Angelico Winery website. For information, call 732-947-4262.
