My favorite adult beverage is the "Wine Walk" in EPCOT. For those who haven't done it, you purchase a wine card in either Germany, Italy, or France for $20 and for that you get (2) glasses of wine in each of those three countries! They choose the wine for the day, and I have always loved them!

6 glasses of wine for $20?! That sounds like a great deal :D Where do you redeem the card in each pavilion? Is it inside a restaurant or an outside kiosk?

Each glass is 2 ounces. Which I think is a lot. And every once in a while you get a CM that pours more than that! It actually ends up being plenty of adult beverage for me... :shock: So, I always get the card in Germany to start because we always go clockwise around world showcase. You get the "wine walk" in the Winekeller in Germany. You can ask for both glasses at once. Then the next place is Italy, and you show them the card and get your two glasses in the wine shop there. The last place is in France in the wine shop there to the left of Impressions de France. Each place you redeem is in the wine shop in each country. In any case I think it's a pretty good deal, it's $20 tax included!

Ditto. My girls will be well old enough to do their own thing, and hubby and I can do a wine crawl without worrying about their entertainment. :)

Way back when, (1985 to be exact :shock:), they used to give wine samples in France and I still have the cute little wine glasses...YES, free wine and souvenir glass :shock:! I am not a wine connoisseur, but I think the "wine walk" would be really nice. Especially since it would be someone else picking the wine...I'm not very good at that :mickey:
