Can We Take Wine Home from a North Fork Winery Tour?

Yes, you can take wine home from a winery tour, and when you book private transportation, there’s plenty of room for it. All the popular wineries on Long Island sell bottles and cases directly from their tasting rooms. Booking a fall wine tour is the best way to get unique bottles that have either just been released or are exclusive to the tasting rooms.

A Long Island Wine Tour Fleet with Ample Storage Space in Every Vehicle

North Country Limousine is a full-service private transportation company serving Long Island.

Throughout our vehicle fleet, whether you choose a luxury SUV for a wine tasting group of 6, a 54-passenger luxury coach, or anything in between, you will find that there’s ample storage for bottles or cases of wine that you pick up throughout the day.

Many of the wineries throughout Long Island’s North Fork and South Fork offer wine club memberships, which include special discounts and exclusive access to stock. Taking some of your favorites home from the tasting room is part of the winery tour experience.

How Should You Handle Your Wine Purchases During the Tour?

Your vehicle stays with your group all day, so any bottles and boxes can stay on board between stops.

• Ask the tasting room staff to box or bag your bottles. It’s also helpful (and better for the environment) to bring a reusable tote bag along with you.
• Wine should be kept out of direct sunlight and heat. At North Country Limousine, our private wine tour vehicles are tinted for privacy and comfort, which also helps to keep wine bottles protected from the sun and out of sight.
• Cases should be stacked flat and secure, so they don’t tip or move around. You don’t need to worry about loading your purchases. Your tour includes a personal chauffeur who will carefully load and secure your purchases.

Every vehicle has enough storage for every person in your group. That includes personal items you want to leave while enjoying the ambience of a vineyard and trying the new fall releases.

North Country Limousine Makes Wine Tasting Convenient and More Relaxing

Assisting with loading your wine purchases is just one way that North Country Limousine makes your Long Island winery tour special. Our chauffeurs will manage your schedule to keep you on time. There’s chilled bottled water waiting when you board, and a minibar and on-board entertainment options in select vehicles. You won’t have to navigate unfamiliar roads or leave one of your group to be a designated driver.

A wine tasting tour is one of the best ways to see the beauty of rural Suffolk County, especially in fall when the foliage is breathtaking and the weather is mild.
