Westfall Winery


Westfall Winery was a winery in Montague Township in Sussex County, New Jersey. Formerly a stop on the Underground Railroad and a dairy farm, the vineyard was first planted in 2000, and opened to the public in 2003. Westfall had 6 acres of grapes under cultivation, and produced 9,000 cases of wine per year, mostly from imported grapes. The winery was named for the family that owned the farm from 1774 to 1940. It was sold in December 2017 and became an animal sanctuary.

Wines

Westfall Winery produced grape wine and also made fruit wines from apples, blackberries, blueberries, cranberries, and peaches.

Other features and properties

When operating as a winery, the farm also offered equestrian services, including horse boarding, and specializes in the use of Morgan horses. In 2006, the owners of Westfall founded Island Winery in Hilton Head, South Carolina.
