You’re invited to experience Intoxicating Adventures with Sheila Whittaker, a freelance wine and travel writer based in Vancouver, B.C. She is packing her Ruby Suitcase for Sydney, Australia, where she will be enjoying the city's Mardi Gras celebration, beaches and close proximity to the Hunter Valley wine region. But you can go down under without leaving home by reading Sheila's Oz Blog.
Spend some time in the Ruby Suitcase reading about a penis festival in Japan, wineries in B.C., or doing it naked and swallowing when you host a wine tasting.
Before you head out to Uva Wine Bar, Boneta or Salt Cellar in Vancouver do your homework. Hosting a wine tasting is a great way to get to know a lot of wines in a hurry. It's not as hard as you might think!
