Jan Zell Wines Riesling (PA)


Jan Zell Wines are located in Port London, Pennsylvania. Jan Zell Wines is owned and operated by Arnie and Laura Jansen.  The winery name, Jan Zell Wines, originated from combining Arnie's last name (Jansen) and Laura's maiden name (Zeller). Catching the wine bug themselves, Arnie and Laura decided to open Franklin County's newest winery in May of 2014 with their production facility located in Fort Loudon, PA.  They opened their first tasting room at 251 Grant Street, Chambersburg, PA on September 27th, 2015.


Semi-Sweet Riesling

Jan Zell offers wines from dry to sweet and also has hard cider. I tried the Jan Zell Riesling at the EWE 2018. It was a lovely semi-sweet Riesling, that started off with a lot of green apple, and tropical fruits, and had a lovely mouth feel.

The winery features musical performances, paint & sips, and numerous other events throughout the year. They also do events with other partner local businesses.

Jan Zell Riesling was a lovely wine well worth trying.
