Haddonfield, NJ – Garden State Wine Growers Association – a coalition of 60+ New Jersey wineries and vineyards supporting the Garden State’s wine industry through information, resources, and advocacy.
The NJ wine community publishes a Passport to New Jersey Wine Country booklet, which includes over 60 wineries in the Garden State to visit and enjoy.
The new and improved companion digital passport offers a streamlined, user-friendly experience, allowing participants to check in at all participating wineries using location services or by submitting a selfie taken on-site. This updated user experience, provided by LoyalBrew LLC, will allow for more accurate check-ins and create a more interactive experience for visitors tracking their progress throughout the New Jersey Wine Country.
“The Garden State Wine Growers Association is thrilled to launch our new digital passport in partnership with LoyalBrew,” said Dustin Tarpine, Chair of the GSWGA Board of Directors and Owner of Cedar Rose Vineyard. “This platform modernizes the way wine lovers discover New Jersey’s wineries, creating a streamlined, fun, and rewarding experience for anyone exploring the Garden State.”
Through the Garden State Wine Growers Association’s passport experience, visitors can explore all participating winery locations, be entered into our annual Grand Prize drawing, and engage more deeply with the state’s diverse wine destinations!
