Long Island Wine Country.com is the premier online magazine and
expert tour operator, dedicated to the wines, foods and locale of
Long Island's bucolic east end wine region. As area experts, our
editors review the latest wines, interview winemakers and keep up
on the new trends and attractions. All tours are hosted by an editor
who will be your personal escort, providing "inside information"
and wine education. And because we have a close working relationship
with the area wineries and restaurants, our tour groups receive
special benefits/extras not available to the public.
It
is our primary goal to provide your group with a fun-filled and
educational day of wine tasting, touring and gourmet food. This
will be done safely and comfortably. We provide round trip transportation
for groups of any size with a fleet of modern luxury Motor Coaches,
Limousine Buses, Limousine Vans and Stretch Limousines.
Our
typical tours start in the morning and include a gourmet lunch at
a vineyard or winery. Afternoon departures may also be arranged
with dinners catered at a winery.
Did you know
that world-class wines are now being made only 90 miles east of
Manhattan in pastoral eastern Long Island? With a terroir and microclimate
that closely resembles grape growing conditions in Bordeaux, there
are now over 3000 acres of grapevines and over 25 wineries making
delicious, varietal wines.
Now thanks to
the editors of Long Island Wine Country.com, groups and organizations
located within the New York Tri-state area have the opportunity
to enjoy a professionally narrated, expert tour of Long Island's
bucolic wine region. If you like wine, food and adventure, our "VIP

and fun experience!
