Starry Starry Night is an event for you to learn about the stars and constellations in the night sky. We will have an "almost" Full Moon this time. So, let's enjoy some Moongazing, too! Sunset Tasting starts an hour prior and serves as a prelude to the Starry Starry Night with an opportunity for a wine tasting and preparation to the Stargazing.Starry Starry Night takes place on the lawn behind our Tasting Room. Please dress appropriately such as long pants and sneakers or walk shoes/boots. Bug spray is a good idea, too. We ask you to bring your own chairs and/or blankets to sit/lay down on during the Stargazing and set them on the lawn upon your arrival. It gets dark quickly after sunset.
Sunset Tasting starts at 7:00 pm in the Tasting Room. Please come at the starting time if you plan a wine tasting as we do not conduct any wine tasting once Starry Starry Night begins. Wine and snacks are available for purchase to keep you company during the Stargazing. A star chart is handed out to each participant during the Sunset Tasting and an introductory talk is given.
Starry Starry Night starts at 8:00 pm. There is no cover charge to join the Stargazing; however, we appreciate your donations to help us continue offering this event in the future.
Fumie Thorpe, the owner of Thorpe Vineyard, has a BS degree in Meteorology with Astronomy Minor from SUNY Oswego. She is your guide to the celestial bodies overhead. Timely astronomical news and findings are presented along with mythology from both Eastern and Western cultures.
Bring over your binoculars and telescopes, if you have and would like. Phone apps are a great tool to learn and find the constellations. Fumie can help you learn how to use them if you are not familiar with them yet.
The entire event is weather permitting due to its nature, so we cancel the activities when it looks appropriate. We post weather updates on Facebook, Instagram and X/Twitter. Follow us to keep informed!
We look forward to your company!
