Thinking of gifting the Grape Train Escape! Any thoughts?

I’m considering this as a birthday gift for my sister. She loves wine and I think the combo of the train ride and the tastings will be amazing! Has anyone done this recently? What was your favorite wine? Would it be a good idea for a younger crowd, or is it more suitable for wine aficionados?

Just did the Grape Train Escape and it was fantastic!

I went last weekend and had the best time! The onboard wine selection was awesome, especially enjoyed the local Arizona wines. The cheese pairings were spot on! The views of Verde Canyon were breathtaking. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a fun night out. Worth every penny!
