Long Island Vineyards

I keep seeing pictures of vineyards in Long Island on social media, but it just seems like too much of a trek to get there. That changed this weekend when I visited relatives in Long Island, who picked me up from the train and drove us to Del Vino Vineyards for a dinner on Friday. It was really fun as I got to experience the Vineyard by dusk and by night, feeling like I was in anyplace but New York as this was so far removed from all my experiences here.

Here are some pictures from the early evening –

As the sun began to set, the sky lit up in shades of pink, making it even more beautiful, fireflies and all –

The wine and food were a bonus given the setting, making for a really memorable dinner. I am definitely going to seek out more visits to Vineyards in Long Island for sure!
