Humans, especially guys it seems, love to make bets. We bet five bucks on the outcome of a ball game. We enter pools at the office on who will correctly pick the most wins in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament each March.

Recalling a story of mine got me to thinking–what other “wine bets” have gone on out there?

Here’s my story

Like many wine enthusiasts, I like to combine traveling with my passion for wine. For many, the idea of wine-related travel invokes images of Napa Valley or Bordeaux. But for me, my thoughts turn to Central Florida in the US. To be more specific, the Walt Disney World Resort.

Already, some must be thinking that I’m nuts. Why on earth would any wine lover want to journey to the place of Mickey Mouse, “it’s a small world,” and long lines of tired, whining children?
