One of the North Fork's benchmark wineries — Bedell has been setting the standard since 1980. The estate produces critically acclaimed blends and single-varietal wines from sustainably farmed vineyards, with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and the flagship Musée blend earning consistent national recognition. Five of their wines were poured at President Obama's 2013 inauguration. The tasting room is refined without being pretentious, with sweeping vineyard views and an art-forward aesthetic.
