Day One

The Experience Begins

As the sun rises on our adventure, we’ll whisk you away from the bustling streets of NYC in style, aboard a luxury SUV. 

Sip on welcome champagne roadies by Champagne EPC as you enjoy fresh coffee and light breakfast bites, setting the perfect tone for a fabulous trip ahead. 

Get to know your fellow travelers, all while our onboard photographer, Alena Kostromina, captures all the moments along the way. 

Our first destination – The picturesque Macari Vineyards

Here, you’ll embark on an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of our winemaker's cellar and bottling line, offering a rare glimpse into the meticulous craft behind every bottle. 

As you wander across the scenic property, a charming table awaits you, nestled between the verdant vines. 

This is where the magic unfolds with our curated “In Between the Vines” Harvest lunch, featuring a tasting menu that showcases the region’s finest flavors.

Later, we’ll transport you to The Shoals Suites & Slips, where you’ll be greeted with a refreshing glass of local RGNY sparkling wine upon check-in. Unwind in your king suite—complete with a king-size bed, kitchenette, living space, spacious bathroom and outdoor terrace—before the evening festivities commence.

As the sunsets we’ll indulge in a scenic, waterside wine pairing dinner boasting selections from some of our favorite wineries across North Fork. 

Throughout the day, our dedicated photographer will record every moment!
