Enjoy a gustatory Tour de Train. These relaxing two-hour trips through Niles Canyon
will present over 30 different selections from six local wineries throughout the event.
Choose one or all of these delightful afternoon excursions each Sunday from August 8
through August 29.
These special trains will explore the secrets of wine tasting and food and wine pairing.
A typical selection will include two whites and three reds with the foods that highlight
their unique characteristics. Different wines are featured every week, along with carefully
selected cheeses, breads or chocolates to compliment each offering. Sparkling cider is
available for those who prefer a non-alcoholic beverage.
Everyone receives a highly collectable commemorative wine glass and special buffet tray
that are yours to keep. Come back every week and collect enough to host your own wine and
cheese party.
