A Day At The Vineyard: Long Island
Posted on 2020-07-16Twenty-five years ago, there was a lone winery on all Long Island. From that single pioneering winemaker a flourishing industry has developed. Today, more than 3,000 acres of vineyards and over 50 companies that compete internationally internationally.
Sadly, many New Yorkers are unaware of this thriving industry on Long Island that offers small batch wines and wineries with lovely tasting rooms. Because the industry is so low-key, New York visitors are also in the dark about a great way to spend a day outside of New York City.
Long Island wineries are in both Nassau and Suffolk Counties and on both forks – North and South. The great majority of the wineries though are at the east end of Suffolk County’s North Fork.
The wine country of Long Island makes for a great corporate event, family reunion or social group event.
