Like Mike Tyson, wine is usually robust, is often boxed, and should never influence tattooing decisions. Imbibe the spirit of a champion with today’s Groupon: for $17, you get a wine-tasting outing for two at Stone Bluff Cellars in Haskell (a $34.95 total value). The outing includes:

• Two etched wineglasses and complimentary wine-tasting admissions (a $12 total value)
• A Stone Bluff club sandwich split for two (a $12.95 value)
• Two bowls of soup (a $5 value each)

At Stone Bluff Cellars, venerated vintner Bob McBratney scrutinizes every grape, barrel, and bottle of the vineyard's [11 varietals](http://gr.pn/oFBwko) to ensure full-flavored bouquets. During the vineyard outing, couples, pairs, or crime-fighting duos dip bites of a shared panini, stuffed with turkey, bacon, and cheddar cheese, into bowls of soup amid pastoral vistas. Inside the tasting room, visitors lounge throughout the sampling session with views of the winery's refinery, and an outdoor patio with rustic décor ensures ample opportunity for impromptu bottle-juggling showdowns. Though not included with today's deal, visitors can purchase one of the vineyard's robust vinos. Libations range from dry reds such as the Terre Rouge, with a soft, fruity character ($15/bottle), to dessert whites such as Soleil with chilled, sweet flavors ($15/bottle). Eager sippers can schedule wine tastings along with Stone Bluff Cellars' upcoming holiday festivities, rocking along with the Celtic Christmas concert on Sunday, December 4 at 2 p.m. or donning a garlic boutonniere for the Vampire Prom night dinner theater on Saturday, November 5 at 7 p.m. ($64/ticket).
