hilton vineyard

We enjoy dropping by and enjoy a glass of wine and we always leave with a bottle of wine to take home. The wines are sweet and they have some one of a kind fruit wines. The wine made of mango is terrific.

We grabbed a Groupon coupon for the vineyard not knowing that it is actually a store front in town. With that said it was a great place to taste their wines. You sit at a counter and with the coupon you get a tray of cheese and crackers to enjoy as you sip. The wines are pretty unique as they are mostly sweet and fruiting, including a watermelon wine that was very good. The coupon also gets you a glass each and if buying their wine you receive a 20% discount for a case. If you have an hour or so to kill, enjoy the wine and the small town atmosphere of Monroe.

The wines are mixed when it comes to taste, though the wines are not vintage they are suprisingly good. The ones I liked are the Merlot, followed by the Plum Pinot Noir, then tried the sweet Mango wine and then lastly you can never leave without trying either the pomegranate slushie or peach bellini slushie. The owners are really nice and you can feel that its a home grown local business. We went on a sunday where the street of Monroe are empty like a ghost town, but voila once we entered the shop, it is packed. Groupon has a deal currently going on and it was a deal best served. Will go back and try another run of wine tasting at this local place maybe on a friday or saturday as I like meeting and watching people walk by. They also have an outdoor sitting.

Great place to drop in after dinner for a glass of wine. Charming little place with a large selection of wine made in Union County. Live music on the weekends makes it a fun place to hang out with friends. You must try the Blueberry Pomegranate slushy! They also have tables outside where you can take your chilled bottle of wine out to enjoy.
