点评:It was a beautiful day in September and the winery was buzzing with activity. Food trucks, music, open grounds and enjoyed a tour of the winery. When I read about the winery, it was interesting to learn that the name came from the 1st owners mother's names, Laura and Rita. I am impressed seeing how the place has grown over the years. From 1998 to 2000 the first harvest was planted.(on 20 acres) By 2003, it was being bottled. 22 years later and it is now 40 fully cultivated acres. Walking through the winery will help you see how big it is. It is one of the biggest wineries in New Jersey. A lot of work has been done in 27 years. Laurita's tasting room building is very impressive. The building is constructed from 2 old barns from the land. It was formerly a dairy farm. The winery grows its own grapes and cultivates it on the premises. Today, one can even join when you go on the grape stomping days. That isn't used for their wine in case you were worried - Ha! The winery is being known for "taking Garden State Grapes and Making them Delicious." They have an impressive selection of wine varietals on their estate. A day at Laurita's is very enjoyable. Listening to the piano person play Billy Joel outside is a great way to sip some wine.
翻译:九月的一个阳光明媚的日子,酒庄里熙熙攘攘。美食餐车、音乐、开阔的场地,以及酒庄之旅,都非常惬意。当我阅读有关酒庄的资料时,有趣的是,酒庄的名字来源于第一任庄主的母亲劳拉和丽塔。看到这里多年来的发展,我印象深刻。从 1998 年到 2000 年,第一批葡萄种植于此(20 英亩)。到 2003 年,葡萄开始装瓶。22 年后,酒庄的面积已达到 40 英亩。在酒庄内漫步,你会看到它有多大。它是新泽西州最大的酒庄之一。27 年来,这里进行了大量建设。劳里塔的品酒室建筑令人印象深刻。该建筑由这片土地上的两个旧谷仓改建而成。这里以前是一个奶牛场。酒庄自己种植葡萄,并在厂内进行培育。如今,你甚至可以在踩葡萄的日子里加入进来。不过,如果你担心的话,这可不是用来酿造葡萄酒的——哈哈!这家酒庄以“用花园州的葡萄酿造美味佳肴”而闻名。他们的庄园里有种类繁多的葡萄酒供你选择。在劳丽塔酒庄度过一天绝对令人愉快。听着外面的钢琴师演奏比利·乔尔的音乐,品鉴葡萄酒也是绝佳的方式。
