If you’re like me, you yawn at the thought of Superbowl Sunday. Don’t get me wrong – I love a reason for a get-together with friends that involves eating and drinking, but the idea of nachos, wings, and beer doesn’t do it for me (nor do the Patriots or Seahawks).

Anyway – I was blue-skying about other excuses for a Sunday get-together and it didn’t take long for me to think of a wine tasting party as a great alternative. And, with so many Ontario wineries now delivering – organizing a winetasting on short notice is a breeze:  just pick your favourite and check their website to see about ordering options. Or, why not pick a winery you’re not too familiar with and order from them? You can see how they stack up against some of your faves – and you might just have a new winery to add to your list of favourites!

Another idea to check out is services like Sideroad Twenty Cellars – they represent a bunch of great Ontario Wineries, including a few from beyond the Niagara region.

So – hope this idea takes the yawn out of the Superbowl for you!
