Don't worry if you don't have enough people to do a barrel. He can help you find other's who may need someone to join up and help them cross the finish line, and you make new friends along the way! If you aren't into wine making, this is a great event space. Get on their mailing list. You will be informed of their mozzarella cheese making classes, their olive oil events, and their bi-annual wine parties, where they really go all out. I'm talking sausage and pizza truck outside, or maybe a BBQ caterer. Inside they'll have all the wine you can drink, meat and cheese options, maybe even a fresh pasta station. They also do private events if you call ahead. Don't worry about the vibe at any of these events. Just because it's wine-making doesn't make it stuffy at all. It is a down to earth space, where folks of all walks of life come through. It is a Staten Island treasure you need to experience.

The menu was so small and didn't have much to choose from and I had seen a lot of good food from the pictures but almost everything I saw was not there. Their French fries were worse than fast food restaurants and I'm very serious about that just bad. It was the six of us and one just had salad virgin cocktails for three and two sodas two flat bread pasta for three but the bill came over $400 which shocked.

Situated right on the water of Red Hook with a nice quiet scenic view of the sound. All flights we ordered were perfectly chilled and of course display cards informing patrons what each was. The staff was so courteous and just made us felt so relaxed. I was not aware they had a private parking lot so next time I'm definitely driving there. This winery is equivalent to most of the wineries out on eastern Long Island and North Fork without the extensive travel. Perfect day getaway for some slippage.

For the amount we paid, could have rented our own bus and taken ourselves and made our own reservations at each place. There's a reason you can't leave google reviews. Also there is a "host" that was supposed to be at each winery. This one person was with multiple groups, very nice but we had to keep asking what the plan was. We had no one go over the wines, maybe briefly at the second winery. At the cider place had the guy that worked there go over it in under 60 seconds. Its not the people working, its the organizer. This was a family trip celebrating and it was just embaressing. Poor execution, DO NOT RECOMMEND. The pictures of happy groups/people are absolutely cherry picked to make the experience seem more than it actually is.

I spoke with Tammy a few times beforehand to confirm the additional elements that would make the day special and she came through for us! She greeted us at our hotel shortly before 11 am in the morning, and chauffeured us in a large Suburban and had cold water bottles for us before we even hit the first winery. At the first winery, she arranged to have both the white and red wine flights for us to sample and guided us through what we were drinking. At the conclusion of the first tasting, she took us on a walk though the vineyard where she had set up some furniture and some flowers for my girlfriend between two rows of grape vines. My girlfriend thought that we were intruding on someone else's space, so she was surprised she I popped the question right there! Tammy snapped a lot of pictures for us during the occasion and I was grateful that we had some privacy in the middle of the vineyard for the moment. I also learned that Tammy had dragged out her own furniture to the winery the day before to make the moment perfect. After the tasting at the first winery, we had a quiet lunch at a local Italian restaurant which was able to accommodate my girlfriend's gluten- and dairy-aversion. We proceeded to a couple of other great off-the-radar wineries to close out the day, and we bought a total of nine bottles of wine to take home by the time we were done. All in all, a great day, and a great way to tour the Northfork's wineries!

I emailed her to make a reservation for a Fri tour and she answered us back promptly. Tour booked. She picked us up on time and we visited several vineyards and wineries. She guided us through the tasting process making the experience more enjoyable. She had a nice rapport with the owners/staff at the various locations which allowed for us to take a personal tour with owners of their facilities. One of our favorites was Waters Crest. In between the tours Tammy brought us to lunch which helped invigorate us for the rest of the tour. At the end of the tour, Tammy drove us back to our accommodations. We bought several great bottles of wine and had a great time with Tammy. I was also recovering from ankle surgery while we took the tour and Tammy was so accommodating. She let us store my rental wheelchair in her vehicle while touring. She picked the best places to visit and luckily I didn't need it once. The crutches worked just fine. I would recommend Tammy of Wine Tours New York to anyone looking for a fun and interesting tour with a friendly and professional guide.

If you're lucky, you'll catch a glimpse of their working cats in the warehouse. For $20, a tour includes the animated history of Kings County, the process of distlling, and a healthy sampling of 4-6 spirits. The cocktail bar is fun, historic, beautiful, and chic. The menu is varied, with something for everyone. I had an espresso martini that was incredibly smooth and delicious. Bathrooms are down a historic, metal spiral staircase, so if accessiblity or mobility area a consideration, I would call ahead to ensure existence of appropriate accommodations. They have a lovely, quite spacious outdoor area that I'm sure is lovely in the summer.
