Cedarvale Winery

Cedarvale Winery is a winery located in Logan Township in Gloucester County, New Jersey. Its roots extend to a family produce farm established in 1905, while the vineyard itself was planted in 2004 and the winery opened to the public in 2008. The business takes its name from the cedar swamps that border the farm, connecting the brand to the local landscape and to its agricultural setting. The winery cultivates approximately eight acres of grapes and produces about 2,500 cases of wine annually. Its grape-wine portfolio includes wines made from Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Pinot Gris, and Villard Blanc. In addition to conventional grape wines, Cedarvale makes fruit wines using produce such as apples, blueberries, nectarines, and strawberries. The broader farm operation also grows fruits and vegetables, giving the business a diversified agricultural identity rather than positioning it solely as a beverage producer. Cedarvale operates under a farm winery license issued by the New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The license framework permits production of up to 50,000 gallons of wine per year, operation of as many as 15 off-premises sales rooms, and shipment of up to 12 cases per year to consumers in or outside New Jersey, subject to applicable regulations. The winery is also a member of the Garden State Wine Growers Association. The winery is not situated within any of New Jersey’s three designated viticultural areas. Its market identity is therefore grounded primarily in its farm-based production, local New Jersey setting, direct public access, and combination of grape and fruit wines. Available reference material does not identify a parent company, publicly traded ownership, named executives, national distribution network, or major international operations.

Cedarvale Winery developed from a family produce farm whose agricultural history dates to 1905. The farm’s long-standing cultivation of fruits and vegetables provided the foundation for a later move into grape growing and winemaking. The vineyard was first planted in 2004, marking the beginning of the winery’s dedicated viticultural phase. The winery opened to the public in 2008. Its name refers to the cedar swamps bordering the property, reflecting the site’s local geography and the business’s close connection to its farm surroundings. Rather than being established as a large industrial wine producer, Cedarvale emerged as a small agricultural winery combining vineyard production, fruit cultivation, and public-facing wine sales. Cedarvale cultivates approximately eight acres of grapes and produces roughly 2,500 cases of wine per year. Its grape varieties include Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Pinot Gris, and Villard Blanc. The winery also uses farm fruit to produce wines made from apples, blueberries, nectarines, and strawberries. This product mix gives Cedarvale a broader identity than a vineyard focused exclusively on traditional grape varieties, while also allowing the farm’s wider produce operation to support the winery’s offerings. The business operates under a farm winery license from the New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control. That license allows production of up to 50,000 gallons annually, the operation of up to 15 off-premises sales rooms, and shipment of up to 12 cases to consumers in New Jersey or elsewhere, within the relevant regulatory limits. Cedarvale’s membership in the Garden State Wine Growers Association places it within New Jersey’s organized wine industry. Geographically, the winery is located in Logan Township in Gloucester County but is not within one of New Jersey’s three designated viticultural areas. The available reference material does not document later ownership changes, corporate acquisitions, major expansions, named leadership, or international distribution. Cedarvale is best characterized as a small, family-linked New Jersey farm winery with a mixed portfolio of grape wines and fruit wines.
