My friend decided she wants to do this for her b-party instead of going into the city. The problem is her party is next weekend. Can anyone give me companies to call that would drive us around or recommendations on where to go and where to stay overnight? We want to see if we can still somehow do this for her....
Thanks!

OMG it is soooo much fun. It is like bar hopping go to the north fork they are all by each other. I highly recommend Pindar. Osprey Dominion (peach wine) Pelligrini, Laurel Lake, Raphel

Thanks! What do you think we should do. I have never done this. Do we get a limo to drive us around the wineries. And then can you just go in and do tastings?

Definiatly get a limo. My parents stayed in Napa for a week last year, my mom said she was drunk the entire time!! You should also go here wine labels when you buy bottels out there you can customize them. A GREAT way to remember. Have a blast

Oh the labels are a great idea!! I love it. So I guess I can call any limo company and say drive us to the North Fork?

Yes - I did this for a friend's bachelorette party in August. We had a limo and just stopped in and did the tastings - we brought some light food (cheese, crackers, etc) with us. It was a blast. Not sure what they have this time of year, but we called ahead to see if certain vineyards had bands or other things going on that day.
Enjoy!

We go on an annual wine tasting tour. We get a limo and have them cart our drunkness around. The wineries out here are excellent!! Just avoid the Premium Wine Group (Lieb Cellars tasting room) I was there in October and it was HORRIBLE!!!! They usually dont have entertainment till the fall but it doesnt hurt to check.. Have a great time!!!

We just did this for my b-party this weekend! It was sooo much fun! The tastings I believe end at 6pm so start early! My MOH had printed out a map of all the wineries and circled ones for the limo driver! I am sure you could find it!

Kelly - would you happen to remember the name of the limo company you used? TIA!
Oh and if they end early - did you guys do something else or where you too drunk to function?

I think it was Mayfair, they are in Northport! I honestly had NOTHING to do with it! I knew nothing about it until my BP kidnapped me on Saturday morning!
