Top Maine Wine Tasting Tours

What sets this experience apart is that it is designed around your group and brought directly to you. Choose a private sensory wine tasting or begin with an all-levels yoga practice before gathering around the table. I come to your Airbnb, vacation rental, private home, waterfront deck, or another Portland-area location. The tasting is relaxed, engaging, and approachable. I guide your group through the aromas, flavors, stories, and sense of place behind each bottle. No wine knowledge is needed. With WSET certification, I bring expertise without making the experience feel formal or intimidating. For groups adding yoga, the movement portion is tailored to your energy, experience, and occasion. First-time participants and regular practitioners are equally welcome. Ideal for bachelorette weekends, birthdays, girls’ trips, anniversaries, family gatherings, and corporate retreats, this private experience helps your group slow down, connect, and enjoy something memorable together.
