Main Street Wellington will host its first trolley Wine Tour from 1-6 p.m. Sept. 21 which will begin at Brady Vineyards, 52185 Griggs Road in Wellington.

The tour will take people age 21 and older to four wineries in Lorain County to sample wines, according to Jenny Arntz, executive director of Main Street Wellington.

“This is the first time we’ve done one that goes outside of Wellington,” Arntz said. “We just thought it would be fun.”

On a trolley provided by the Lorain County Convention and Visitor’s Bureau, guests will be driven to Vermilion Valley Vineyards, Paper Moon Winery in Vermilion and Wolf’s Wine Co. in Amherst to experience many varieties of locally made wine.

While on the trolley, Arntz said people can participate in other activities, including the chance to win…

Donna Kelce, the mother of Kansas City Chiefs tight end and Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce, also apparently knows how to incorporate wine into a Super Bowl party.

Portland’s first shop dedicated solely to sake is now open inside a speakeasy alleyway, serving varieties you’d never find at your average neighborhood sushi restaurant.

Sunflower Sake opened in late fall at 5427 NE 30th St., adjacent to Dame: the wine shop and eatery known for hosting pop-up kitchens in its dining room.

The sake store is stocked with a carefully curated selection of approximately 125 bottles, all available to purchase. Those who prefer to sample and then commit can also take advantage of the on-premises tasting room, where you can explore rice wine by the glass, carafe or bottle along with an assortment of housemade snacks. Takeout from the area’s concentration of restaurants is also allowed.
