It's a Trafalgar trip, where tours are renamed "guided holidays" and tour guides are coined "travel directors" - so we'll be nudged in the right direction, then left to roam free.įor an independent traveller, the concept of a group tour is slightly disconcerting. My first visit to the wine region around San Francisco also involves being on a tour, and not just any tour. This unusual situation of sucking on a post-breakfast wine pipette (not to be called a "bubble blower" or "wine bong", the winemaker jokes) isn't the only unique element to this trip. Rather, it's a wine-blending class at Ravenswood Winery in the Sonoma Valley and I'm optimistic my personally blended wine could be the start of an award-winning, big-buck winemaking career. It's not a usual start to a Wednesday, but this isn't any normal Wednesday. It's 9.30am and we're sucking red wine through a pipette.
