Do you tip after wine tasting?

DO Feel Free to Tip the Pourer. Most wineries charge a tasting fee, which allows you to sip away guilt-free without leaving a tip! Many even waive the fee if you buy a certain number of bottles of wine. Even though it's not typically expected, at most wineries and tasting rooms, tips are always appreciated.
