"Since you're probably going to be drinking a wide variety of wine throughout the day, it’s best to start with something lighter or sparkling, since the bolder flavors of reds can linger and affect your taste buds. To follow this very scientific advice, go to Sparkling Pointe—they only make effervescent wines, so you won’t throw off your palette for the rest of the day. There’s a nice patio where you can sip your flute of bubbly, or you can seek refuge in their large, air-conditioned tasting room if it’s already way too hot at 11am. " - anne cruz
