Wine is a delicious beverage, beloved by many.
Touring a vineyard (or multiple vineyards) is a
fun way to spend an afternoon and sample new
wines. In fact, many travelers going through a
wine region will make an effort to stop off at a
few wineries on their trip. If youre headed out
to an inviting vineyard, youll want to remain
safe both during the tour and afterwards. Here
are some tips to remember. Designate a
Driver The first thing you want to do, even
before you head out, is designate a driver. Maybe
youre only going with a small group, or maybe
youre joining a large tour group. Wine generally
doesnt make people as drunk as fast as many
other alcoholic beverages, but its better to be
safe than sorry, especially where alcohol is
concerned. Having a designated driver means you
dont have to worry about drinking too much wine
to drive, and the driver will have very little if
at all.

Set Limits in Advance Decide exactly how much
youre going to drink in advance. Think about how
much alcohol you can tolerate. Most people know
their limits. For some people, that number is a
few large drinks. For others, it may only be a
glass or two before they feel the effects of the
wine on their coordination and judgment. Remember
that wine does have less alcohol compared to hard
liquors, plus the drinks are smaller, but still
set a reasonable limit on how much you plan to
drink. Pair Wine With Food One of the best ways
to enjoy wine and keep it from overwhelming your
system is by eating at the same time. Many of the
best wineries offer a full menu of wines, paired
with just the right food to bring out the flavors
in the wine. Take the time to eat a small meal
with your wine, and youll enjoy the tour even
more. This will also give your body time to
metabolize the alcohol, clearing it from your
system.

Bring Comfortable, Safe Shoes Some wine tours
require a lot of walking. You may need to walk
uphill to get the winery. Hills and other areas
of the vineyard can be steep, so bring
comfortable shoes with you. Dress shoes or heels
may look nicer, but they dont have much
traction, which is what youll want to maintain
your balance throughout the tour. Comfortable
shoes will also be better for your feet while
youre standing on concrete outdoor spaces for
potentially hours at a time. Drink Small
Glasses At a wine tasting and tour, you want to
sample lots of wines. Stick to small glasses
only. This way, you can really taste the nuances
of each type of wine sold there. Youll be able
to tell the difference between a sweet wine like
Port and one with sharper notes. Youll also be
able to avoid drinking too much
overall.   Remember these basic tips during your
trip into wine country, and youll be able to
stay safe while enjoying your wine at the same
time. And youll have an experience to remember.
