A Wine Tasting We Will Go

Many vineyards release their latest vintage wines during the fall harvest season, so in order to make room they need to sell off some of their inventory – starting now. What does that mean for you? Skip a trip to the liquor store for a bottle of vino and plan a wine tasting weekend with your closest friends and family that will allow you to sip before you spend. You can’t go wrong visiting the vineyards in the Finger Lakes, New York; Niagara Falls, New York; or Napa Valley, California.

Getting Around
No one wants to be the designated driver on a wine tour, because the idea of forgoing the adult beverages being offered and rather gulping down glasses of fresh grape juice just doesn’t sound as appealing. 
Solution: hire a car service, or better yet, a limousine. (Why not travel in style, ya know?) LimoStars.com is your go-to car service in Napa Valley, with a variety of different options for you to select; plus, off-season equals discount.

Let’s Eat
Before you begin on your tasting journey, it is best to fill your belly with some hearty food, so that you can prevent any symptoms that may arise from sipping too much Riesling. Restaurant.com has thousands of participating restaurants all over the country for you to choose from, making it easy for you to find a welcoming spot with delicious food. Currently, you can erase 60% off your bill by purchasing a $25 gift certificate for only $10 – all you have to do, when you dine, is present the certificate before ordering. Research the best restaurants in the town you will be visiting, and secure the best seats in the joint before you even leave for your trip.

Nighty-Night
After a long day of swirling, sniffing and sipping, rest your head on the cushy pillow of a beautifully laundered hotel bed. Turn down the sheets, bust open one of the bottles of wine that you bought earlier, and cuddle close with your honey. When you’re at home, the kids wake up at the crack of dawn, so use this time to decompress and relax. You can relax about hotel pricing, as well, because through December 31st, you can save $40 off select hotels from CheapOStay.com. ChoiceHotels.com is also dishing out the deals with up to 20% off reservations booked in advance at their many properties, including Clarion Hotels.

Whether this is your first or fifth wine tour, enjoy the great sights, sounds, smells and tastes that your vineyard vacation has to offer.
