You look at the wine list and see a few options that are incredible, and you desperately want to pick up a bottle. Then, you look at the price tag, and you pause for a moment. Should you do it? Will you hate yourself when you get home? You have to balance satisfaction against guilt, a process that\u2019s rarely easy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nSometimes, it\u2019s worth it. Think of the regret you\u2019ll have when you look back on a unique wine that you missed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nSo, how do you make the right call? Here are a few tips:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<strong>1. Your budget:<\/strong> Consider where you are saving money. If you got a great deal on tickets or a killer rate for your hotel, go for a great bottle of wine, even if only once on your trip. Your overall savings will go down a bit, but you\u2019re still coming out ahead of the game.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<strong>2. Special occasion:<\/strong> Is this a run-of-the-mill vacation, or is it something more. If you\u2019re popping the question, for example, you need to choose the right wine. Spring for the good stuff.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<strong>3. The destination:<\/strong> If you\u2019re headed to wine country, it would be an absolute sin to go cheap on the wine. Look at it this way: the special wine in wine country will probably be cheaper than it would be at home. Indulge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<strong>4. The wine:<\/strong> Finally, you need to think about the wine itself. If it\u2019s hard to find \u2013 or if you\u2019ve never seen it before \u2013 you have an opportunity: seize it! Look at the situation for what it is, you have one shot at a unique travel experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<strong>5. The cost:<\/strong> At some point, you do have to be realistic: some wines are just too expensive. If you can afford it at a stretch, drink it. If you really can\u2019t afford it, however, you\u2019re taking the first step toward regret.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<em>Don&#8217;t forget to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cheapoair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8216;Like us&#8217; on Facebook<\/a><\/strong> for exclusive travel deals! <\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>photo: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/shodan\/2443176441\/sizes\/m\/in\/photostream\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">shodan <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pick the Right Bottle for the Right Occassion &nbsp; It\u2019s always a temptation when you\u2019re on vacation.
