Sip, Savor, and Adventure: Wine Tours, Tips, and Tales (SA020)

Here's the revised version without timestamps:

---

Ready to swirl, sniff, and sip your way through some unforgettable wine-tasting adventures? Today’s episode of Stacking Adventures is a toast to wine tours, featuring hilarious and heartfelt stories, practical tips, and a few spills (hopefully just metaphorical).

Crystal shares her dream of leading wine tours in retirement—because why not get paid to drink wine and look fancy? Jennifer takes us to Portugal with her incredible wine tour experience, where she discovered the magic of Port wine and how to enjoy wine tastings without emptying your wallet. And let’s not forget Crystal’s jaunt through Swiss vineyards (because even ski trips deserve a little grape action) and Joe’s own wine tales, which might just involve questionable choices in Northern Michigan.

Plus, Wesley’s Wine Tips will arm you with everything you need to ace your next tasting, and we highlight a piece of travel gear that promises to keep your wine-and-cheese habit from becoming your wine-and-regret habit.
