I had a great time aboard the Little Wine Bus. It was a nice day for a tasting of a variety of different wines. Tania put a lot of work in what she does best. I purchased a few bottles of the wines. I am glad that I rubbed elbows with her. She is a very hard working person and she enjoys making everyone on board happy and mellow. On board, in the morning she served Mimosas and bagels with apple butter, cream cheese or pumpkin butter. At the first tasting she displayed a variety of cheeses and strawberries. The Sangria was there to be purchased and it was delicious.Written on Sep 28 2010
The second tasting was right before lunch. Tania took care of two groups. While one group was tasting the second group was having their lunch which was a buffet of wraps, pasta and a cake to boot. We were able to purchase a pitcher of Sangria with our lunch. The scenery was awesome and breathtaking. It was a lovely day.
The third tasting 10 minutes away. It was quick and back on the bus to Manhattan. You were able to walk through the groves of grapes and apples. I would recommend this trip as a treat to you or your love ones.
Pictures will follow at a later date.

I had good time at this event. I took the trip by myself but everyone was friendly. The staff is very courteous and try to make sure you're enjoying yourself. Jake is unbelievably knowlegeable about wine but doesn't talk down to you which is great for a beginner like myself. Take light jacket/sweater because the cellars can get chilly. I'm planning on going again and taking a friend with me.Written on May 30 2011
