    Finally got to taste long island wines 11 months ago

    Since I just turned 21 I can finally take advantage of summers on long island – I live in wine country! The ride along the north shore is scenic and beautiful, and you pass a lot of vineyards. I plan to visit them all. It’s so much fun! My boyfriend and I went to a few and we decided on a number rating system for the wines. The highest rated wine for me has been duckwalks southampton white at a 7.5 and the blueberry port I gave a 000 lol (I gave a blush wine a zero, but the port… omg it was much much worse. I thought “Where do we go from here?? This is worse than a zero!! It’s a triple zero!”)

    Mostly all long island vineyards have verandas and very nice sitting areas where you can buy a glass and listen to live music. There are a few big events sometimes too, like swing dancing at pindar or something of that sort. You meet a lot of people there, it’s usually very friendly atmosphere though everyone we met was not from NY.

    Awesome-ness 12 months ago

    I do this as often as I can. The liquor store here (largest in OK) does one every month and it’s not just wine…it’s beer and other things. I actually went to a Sake Tasting and that was a lot of fun! July 31, I am going to a Riesling & Cider tasting!

    You meet lots of new people as well.

    i've been doing this with my parents for years 17 months ago

    it’s just since i turned 21 (gah, almost three years ago!) that i’ve actually been able to drink the wine instead of grape juice.

    and my fiance came last summer, which made it even better. :)

    For my 21st birthday I went to an Italian Castle in Napa. That way beat Vegas!

    1/4 Done? 19 months ago

    I went to a wine-tasting a few weeks ago; it was a fundraising event, and there were many delicious wines and liquors to taste. However, I was also performing at the event, so I wasn’t really able to taste as many different wines as I would have liked. (I tried 3, one of them was a DELICIOUS port.) It would be nice to do one in B.C. and taste different wines as I travel through the region; I’ll have to check up on how I might go about doing that.

    Napa 20 months ago

    I went to a friend’s birthday party last month and it was pretty fun – except it was just one wine :). It was a bottling party, more. But still fabulous.

    I can’t wait to visit Napa Valley and do a wine tasting. I’d feel like such a dork, though…never actually did something like that before except for that Ameriprise event I mentioned before.

    Ameriprise 21 months ago

    I went to an event Ameriprise threw and it was great.

    It was fun and I got to take home a bottle of Spanish Tempranillo red wine. There will be a wine bottling event on my friend’s birthday as it’s part of her celebrations so that should be fun as well. :)

    Fun but can be expensive... 23 months ago

    I went wine tasting in central California a couple of years ago in the same area where the movie “Sideways” was filmed. It was fun, but expensive because if I tasted something I liked I had to buy a bottle. I think my alcohol tolerance must be low. One thing I don’t quite understand is how people can have the tolerance to go to one winery after another tasting and tasting and still have the capability to drive. I tried 3 seperate wines at two different wineries and I was wasted. Fortunately, I had someone else with me to do the driving, so I went tasting at a few more wineries and got even more wasted. I saw the same people at each of the wineries and none of them seemed drunk. Go figure…



    so worth it.. 23 months ago

    if you pick a great winery. I live near the Finger Lakes and have been to many wineries there. I like most of the wine, and I love the fact that each of the wineries have their own personalities. One is kinda fancy, the next has a rustic feel and the next is like drinkin in somebodies basement.
    This week I met my goal by going to a winery on Put-in-bay..Heinemens or something like that. We did the tour and got samples of the wine afterwards. We all got different wines. Not a one was good. I could barely get mine down! But i never really did enjoy the Island wines of Ohio much. My brother sipped his wine and declared, ‘this is absolute deer piss!’
    It was a funny experience anyways. eVEn bad wine tasting is good because you learn a little more about what you don’t want to ever try again.



    8 to 10 wine tastings a month! 2 years ago

    I love everyone’s enthusiams about wine tastings! I am consultaning at about 2 wine tasting a week and I make sure to stop in at wine tastings in stores too- love it!

    I am a team leader with The Traveling Vineyard and I lead a team of 40 wine consultants across the country who bring 5 bottles of complimentary wine into your home to sample.

    If you are interested in having a team member turn your living room into a tasting room or you want to become a wine consultant, drop me a line!

    Cheers!
