Pindar Vineyards
The original big North Fork winery — huge list, lawn, live music, and tour buses.
The original big North Fork winery: three hundred acres, a mythological list, lawn music, and tour buses that actually belong here. Taste Mythology or the méthode champenoise — skip the sweet seasonal SKU if you came for seriousness.
Everything: dry to sweet, sparkling to port. Crowd-pleaser ladder plus a few serious reserves.

Getting here
Our partner can drive you to Pindar Vineyards
A black-car SUV with a driver, door to door. Ask for a price and our black-car partner will come back to you — which also settles the one problem a tasting day cannot solve on its own, that somebody has to stay sober to drive.
Pick the car
The quieter ride of the two, and the one people picture when they book a black car.
Read this before you book the car
- Pindar Vineyards takes hired vehicles by arrangement only, so the room needs telling in advance.
- Their own condition: a prepaid time slot has to be booked in advance.
