TOAST THE NIGHT

Nestled amidst the picturesque rolling hills of Vinton County in Southeast Ohio, Le Petit Chevalier Vineyard and Farm Winery stands as a cherished family-owned and operated establishment. Specializing in the cultivation of cold-hardy hybrids and classic native wine grapes, the vineyard is dedicated to supplying exceptional wine grapes for their on-site winery.

In keeping with their commitment to creating memorable experiences, they introduced "Stargazing Fridays." During the summer and fall, they extended their hours on Fridays, allowing guests to revel in the wonders of stargazing. This unique opportunity presented the chance to capture the ethereal beauty of the Milky Way against their stunning backdrop.

It was during this opportunity that I uncovered a hidden gem for Milky Way photography, set against the backdrop of this remarkable winery. The experience was made even more unforgettable by the diverse and delightful selection of wines available to all who visit. Of course, I couldn't resist the temptation to savor some of their exceptional wines, even leaving with a few bottles to enjoy at home.
