Why Wine makes a great Conversation Piece

When I invite guests over for dinner We love to offer a glass of wine. Not only that, I like to have our wines displayed beautifully on our nice wine racks. We spark up conversations about the many wine tours we have attended.  There are so many awesome memories and experiences you have when you go to a winery. In today's post I want to talk about how wine is a great conversation piece. If you have not got a chance to check out previous post about the Wine, Brunch Tour ATL CLICK HERE. I have partnered with Soul Wander Travel and The Sistah Chick.

Conversation Starter- sometimes you may have friends, family, or associates that come by your home. Maybe for a dinner, special occasion, or just because. As everyone is gathered around talking, mingling, laughing, ect ... you may offer them something to drink. That's what sparks up conversation (pulling out a bottle of wine)!  You ask them what type of wine do they like reds, or white, ect... You pour their wine, and wait for their reaction to see if they like it or not. This sparks up even more conversation! I think of wine as a excellent icebreaker! We like to talk to our guests about where we get our wine from, and what ingredients it contains. We very rarely purchase wine from a store; majority of the time it's directly from a winery. 

Teasing your Palette - when wine hits your tongue you will taste the flavors, and  when you inhale, exhale all the aromas (it's a wonderful experience).  Futhermore, when going to a winery you will learn about this (ask lots of questions)! Everyone of course has different taste buds. Some prefer semi-sweet, sweet, or even dry wines. There are even some wines you can drink frozen, and even warm! Make sure you hold you wine glass properly (By the Stem ONLY, not by the bowl, your body temp will warm up the wine, you don't want that)! I will blog later on "Wine 101" so you will be ready when you attend the Wine Tour! 

Cheers & Salute - have fun when tasting wine, especially when enjoying it with others. My husband and I always find that people are really interested in our many wines. Because, the wines come from a winery there's a story to tell behind each bottle (an they taste really good). The holidays are among us, I'm sure you will be attending functions, parties, or hosting one yourself perhaps. I hope you check out my last post, about the Wine Brunch Tour ATL coming 11.15.2015!

3 Reasons to attend Wine Brunch Tour ATL

I hope you had the opportunity to read the first post about the upcoming  "Wine Brunch Tour ATL"! Sunday, November 15, 2015. If not, make sure you check it out! 

FUN & Relaxing -  everyone loves to have fun (of course) and taking a break from the everyday hustle and bustle (work, school, family, kids, ect..) is very necessary. This event is perfect because you can start your week off in the beautiful wine country of Georgia. Ride comfortably on a bus (you don't have to worry about drinking and driving), kick back and enjoy the sights, and atmosphere. Don't forget there will be Swag Bags and giveaways (awesome things inside those bags) and you get to attend 3 wineries, get a souvenir glass, and lastly have a delicious brunch. Sundays are the start of a new week, and also a perfect day to eat brunch (I know I LOVE a good Sunday Brunch). Wine tasting is very relaxing and enjoyable; it's a win-win! 

Taste & Learn - not only do you have a opportunity to learn about the various wines, but you get to taste lots of wine. You get to a chance to ask questions about the wines, learn how they are made. You will learn about the reds, whites, semi-sweet, sweet, dry, ect wines. Tasting the different wine is so relaxing as well. Tasting is the best part, you get to determine what you like and dislike. Everyone's taste buds are so different, it's important to learn how to properly taste the wines. I have another blog post coming soon about that! 

You deserve it - here's a reason to get out of the house. Gather your friends, plan a girlfriends day out. Plan that special date, propose to the special someone. Grab the fellas, and head out to wine country. Why not treat yourself? We have to make time for ourselves, it's so important. You could even buy a ticket for someone else as a gift. But, know that you deserve a nice outing, take advantage of the opportunity to go before it's sold out. I hope you enjoyed these 3 reasons to attend the wine, brunch and wine tour ATL! Please, look out for future posts coming soon!

Wine Brunch Tour ATL

The air is getting cooler, the leaves turning colors, and falling (I absolutely love the Autumn). Fall in the beautiful south has begun! Georgia is absolutely GORGEOUS during this time of year. It's time to pull out jackets, and and plan all your Fall activities, and trips.

There are so many things always going on in the south. You may be undecided on what to do.  I can help you narrow down your options!  I know of something really exciting happening in Georgia soon! 

You may want to plan a day out with a close friend, best friend, loved one, or significant other. Perhaps, it's been a while since you planned a day out with the guys or girls. Maybe, you just want to treat yourself to a nice activity. Furthermore, you may want to plan a special surpise, maybe "propose" to the love of your life! 

I want to tell you about an amazing event, coming this November 2015.

I have partnered with  Soul Wander Travel and The Sistah Chick to host a wonderful brunch & wine tour.
