Self Guided North Fork Winery Tour

May 3, 2013 Wilfred Joseph

In this post, we are going to give you a list of the wineries closest to our Long Island Bed and Breakfast in East Marion for your Self Guided North Fork Winery Tour.  Take your bike or rent one, get a designated diver or hire a limo or driver for a wine tasting tour you won’t forget.

  1. Kontokosta Winery North Road, Greenport, NY:

This winery is less than two mile from us.  It is spectacular in that you have magnificent view of the sound.  As they say “Sound Mind, Sound Wine”. The Tasting Room is open Sunday, Monday & Thursday 11am to 5pm,  Friday & Saturday 11a to 6p.  Closed Tuesday & Wednesday, Limousines, buses and vans are not permitted. Trained, leashed Service Dogs are welcome; however, pets are not permitted.
 

 2.  Old Field Vineyards, 59600 New York 25 Southold:

Six miles south of the B&B is the Old Field, a family owned and operated winery open since 1974. Open Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Spring.

5. Mattebella Vineyards, 46005 Rte 25 Southold:

Now the wineries are going to start being even closer together.

Tasting Cottage open Wednesday through Monday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. (and sometimes later).

6. Duckwalk Vineyards, 44535 Main Rd. Southold.

Only a quarter mile down Main Rd. from Mattebella is Duck Walk. Voted one of 2013’s best of Long Island, founder Dr. Herodotus “Dan” Damianos helped start the Long Island wine industry in the early 1980’s. Tasting room open seven days a week from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Spring Wine Tasting Weekend, Long Island Bed and Breakfast
Plan a spring wine-tasting tour of Long Island.
A 2012 Spring Passport to Long Island Wine Country special is underway through June 1. In other words, this is a fabulous time to come spend a few days at  Arbor View House our  North Fork Long Island Bed and Breakfast near historic Greenport, NY.
Do you know how fun it is to visit a foreign land and come home with a new stamp on your passport? Well, each time you visit a participating Long Island Winery and purchase a bottle of wine, you'll get a stamp on your "passport".
Visit at least 10 participating wineries and receive:
  • A complimentary tasting of featured wine (with purchase of any in-house tasting).
  • 2 admission tickets for the price of 1 to the 2012 Taste of Summer event at Old Bethpage Village on June 2.
  • A chance to win an East End Experience Gift Package.
 Passport to Long Island Wine Country

In addition, you'll have had the wonderful experience of visiting many Long Island wineries and trying their wine. Like travel, this will broaden your mind and tantalize your palate!
Participating Long Island Wineries are too numerous to list here, but all 35 of them are listed on the Long Island Wine Country website.
Rest assured, you'll find many participating wineries close to our North Fork Long Island Bed and Breakfast. Peconic Bay Winery, Bedell Cellars, and Old Field Vineyards (try their Cabernet Franc) are three of the closest.
When you stay with us you'll get a wine discount card that will increase your savings even more.
