The Winery operates a satellite Bottle Shop + Tasting Room in Lahaska, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
In 2012, founder Eric Miller left the company.[4] Though its focus shifted towards sweet wines at the time, the Winery now produces a wide-ranging portfolio including sweet, off-dry, dry, and sparkling styles.
The Chaddsford 2017 Cabernet Franc was selected as a finalist in the 2019 PA Sommelier Judgement Day awards.[5] Under current winemaker Gabriel Rubilar, Chaddsford 2020 Sparkling Sémillon was recognized as the Best Sparkling wine in the state of PA at the 2022 PA Sommelier Judgement Day awards.[6]
The winery is known for producing approachable, food-friendly wines and sharing them in a casual, fun environment. They offer seasonal wine events throughout the year, including tastings and festivals,[7] as well as operating a close-knit Wine Club community.[8] Chaddsford's corporate goals include approachability, community and sustainability.[9]
