Enjoy a gustatory Tour de Train conducted by certified sommelier and wine educator, Sean Andrade. These relaxing two-hour trips through Niles Canyon will present over 30 different “Sommelier Selections" from six local wineries throughout the event.
These special trains start with a traditional French champagne saberage; then 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.

Sean has been featured in many publications for his fresh and easy approach. "Wine without snobbery or pretense, the way it should be... fun!" He also travels the world to teach and is the wine writer for TriValley Magazine.


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.
