(RINGOES, NJ) -- Hip-Hop icon Darryl "DMC" McDaniels is coming to Old York Cellars in Ringoes on Saturday, November 30, 2024 to launch his new 2022 King DMC Reserve Wine Collection, featuring an exclusive Meet & Greet with Darryl at the winery. The event runs from 1:00pm to 4:00pm.
These new wines mark the third vintage in the successful partnership between Old York Cellars and McDaniels, a founding member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group Run-DMC. Since 2020, this collaboration has produced distinctive wines and gifts under the Darryl Mack Cellars label.
"Darryl views wine and food as part of his bigger vision of bringing people together," says David Wolin, owner of Old York Cellars. "Old York Cellars shares his passion for bringing wine to a wide range of people."
The 2022 King DMC Reserve Collection features two exceptional wines: the KING DMC Reserve Red, a sophisticated blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Syrah with soft tannins and a full-bodied structure, and the KING DMC Reserve White, an elegant blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Vidal Blanc which has hits of stone and tropical fruits with a clean finish.
Beyond its exceptional wines, Darryl Mack Cellars demonstrates a strong commitment to social responsibility.
A portion of all sales benefits the Felix Organization, a non-profit founded by McDaniels and Emmy-winning casting director Sheila Jaffe in 2006. The organization creates inspiring experiences and opportunities for children growing up in the Foster Care System. "The heart of this collection came from Darryl's passion for philanthropy," Wolin explains.
Wine enthusiasts and hip-hop fans alike are invited to join this special celebration and meet the legendary artist while experiencing these exceptional new wines. The King DMC Wines are available exclusively at the winery or online at oldyorkcellars.com. The original Darryl Mack Cellars wines are available at Wegmans in New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania.
Old York Cellars was founded on the vision to create world-class wines in a friendly atmosphere in New Jersey. Nestled in the foothills of the Sourland Mountains in Central New Jersey, Old York Cellars offers an unparalleled winery experience, including guided wine tastings, food and wine pairings, weekend music, wine and comedy shows, private cabanas and large covered seating.
