An Evening with Hip-Hop Legend Darryl DMC McDaniels at Old York Cellars Winery August 28
Old York Cellars is turning up the volume in New Jersey’s wine country with an unforgettable night of wine, food, and hip-hop history. On Thursday, August 28, 2025, the winery will host the exclusive release of the 2023 King DMC Reserve Wines with a live appearance by Darryl DMC McDaniels, legendary founding member of Run-DMC and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee.
Darryl DMC McDaniels partnered with Old York Cellars in 2020 to create Darryl Mack Cellars, a one-of-a-kind wine collection that merges music, philanthropy, and fine winemaking. The King DMC Reserve wines represent the pinnacle of that partnership. A portion of the proceeds supports The Felix Organization, the nonprofit McDaniels co-founded in 2006 to provide inspiring experiences and opportunities for children in foster care.

“Partnering with DMC on this collection has been a truly rewarding experience,” said David Wolin, Owner of Old York Cellars. “Not only do we get to share exceptional wines with our guests, but we also help Darryl continue his mission to uplift and inspire foster children through The Felix Organization. It’s an honor to blend our passions for wine and community with his legacy in music and philanthropy.”
“Wine brings people together the same way music does,” said Darryl McDaniels. “This collection is about celebration and giving back and will help The Felix Organization continue to provide valuable resources and support for kids in foster care. I appreciate Old York Cellars collaborating with me for this wonderful cause, and I look forward to meeting everyone at this event.”

This one-night-only experience includes:
– Buffet dinner in the winery’s vineyard tent prepared by Chef José with glass of wine
– Samplings of the newly released 2023 King DMC Reserve Red and White Blends
– Samplings of the Darryl Mack Cellars Red and White Blends
– An inspirational discussion with Darryl McDaniels
– Meet & greet session after the talk
– A bottle of 2023 King DMC Reserve Red or White Blend to take home
Guests will also be able to purchase additional wines from the Darryl Mack Cellars collection, as well as Darryl’s Koolest Cookies in the Universe, at the event.
Tickets are $70 per person ($60 for Vintner’s Club members) and include buffet dinner, a glass of wine, wine samplings, and a bottle of the 2023 King DMC Reserve Wine. Seating is limited for this epic fusion of fine wine and hip-hop history.
