Default Recommendations for North Fork, Long Island winery tours?

A friend and I have a couple of days free in 2 weeks or so and were
wondering if anyone had recommendations for winery tours/tastings and
lodging in the North Fork of Long Island, NY (or nearby).

We're open to staying at the winery, if available and worth it, or at
a hotel in the area.

No limits on the wine varieties, we're out there to explore! Though
we do both love a really nice Pinot Grigio or Riesling. :-)

Thanks!
John

Macari made the single best wine I've had from LI ('97 Macari Bergen
Road)
Paumonok has a great rep, liked the one I tried
Lenz is pretty good, and does nice tour.
I've enjoyed wines from Old Field Vinteyards (http://
www.theoldfield.com)- disclaimer, owners are friends, and I've even
picked a grape or a thousand.

I don't think PG and Riesling are popularly planted varities in LI.
Frisky Oyster in Greenpoint is good for a restaurant.

No lodging recs, as I have stayed with my friends.
