Winery Do’s and Don’ts

• DON’T arrive on an empty or full stomach - both can lead to discomfort

• DON’T order a full glass or bottle without asking for a sample taste first

• DON’T order a full bottle unless you know your party can finish it or the winery confirmed they can recork it for you before you leave

• DON’T pick the grapes off the vine and be mindful of any “No walking through the vines” policies

• DON’T forget to hydrate - ping pong back and forth between water and wine

• DON’T forget to document your trip with a photo or two (or seven)

• DO eat a nice meal 2-3 hours before your visit

• DO order one white, one red and one food item to get a feel for the winery (even better - try a tasting!)

• DO try to visit during a nice weather day to get the full indoor and outdoor experience

• DO ask when tours are available - it personalizes the winery and helps you learn all about the winemaking process

• DO let the server know what kinds of wine you like/dislike or if it’s your first experience with wine

• DO be mindful of your attire

• DO have fun! Cheers!
