Enjoy a gustatory Tour de Train conducted by certified sommelier & wine educator, Sean Andrade of the Andrade Wine Group. These relaxing two-hour trips through Niles Canyon will introduce you to some of Sean’s “Sommelier Selections" from local wineries. Choose one or all of these delightful afternoon excursions presented in a relaxed, “wine snob free” style each Sunday from July 27- August 31.

Mr. Andrade travels the world to teach, and 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 is the wine writer for Tri Valley Magazine.

Now Sean brings his unique touch to the Niles Canyon Railway, introducing you to a variety of fine wines, and gourmet cheeses. Passengers on board these special trains will discover the secrets of wine tasting and of food and wine pairing. A typical wine selection will include two whites and three reds, together with the paired foods that highlight their special characteristics. Several different Livermore Valley area wineries are featured each week, along with a variety of carefully selected cheeses and breads to compliment each offering.

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.
