The Best Ways to Travel Home with Wine

2/10/2020

0 Comments

 
​Is there anything nicer than opening a bottle of wine, taking in its fragrant aromas, enjoying its delicious taste and remembering the far away destination where you purchased it? If you are in a destination with great vineyards then buying wine as part of your vacation or honeymoon is a wonderful experience. I often include a tour and tasting at one of these vineyards. It can be difficult to enjoy a visit of this kind without also wanting to bring home at least a few bottles to enjoy later.

​The trick, though, is just how to go about traveling home with the wine you purchased, and without causing it to lose some of its charms or even to end up a broken bottle of wine instead of a vintage to enjoy weeks or months later. ​

January 2020 Clients of the Month - John and Eric

1/14/2020

0 Comments

 
My clients of the month for January 2020 are John and Eric and their trip to Paris.  Paris is a magical place during any time of the year, but during Christmastime the city really kicks it up a notch.  

I've helped John and Eric plan a few trips in the past, but I got to know them a lot better this past November as they were part of my group to Africa.  They are a lot of fun and delightful couple and I'm happy to feature them this month and showcase their trip to Paris.
