The eastern end of Long Island--which includes the North Fork and South Fork (better known as the Hamptons)--is now a burgeoning community of vintners and wine sellers. It's home to about 30 wineries, producing more than 20 European varietals, mostly Merlot, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc.

It's owned by Michael Lynne, CEO and co-chairman of New Line Cinema, but operated by founder Kip Bedell.

A few miles down the road is Corey Creek Vineyards, also a Lynne property, which offers premium Chardonnay...
