#704. Welcome to the FIRST Vino Confessions episode. It has been about 6 years of Kaitlyn sharing her confessions with you all on the podcast, it’s time for the tables to turn. 
CONFESSION TOPIC: WORST FIRST DATES

VINO 1 — The Tinder Trio (01:30): What started as a normal Tinder date over a couple glasses of Chardonnay, ended up leaving her with one question almost a decade later… Was I set up?
VINO 2 — Boot Sock Bandit (14:20): Yet again, another Tinder date gone wrong. Terribly, terribly, wrong. If you’re in the Michigan area and have a similar experience, please let us know!
VINO 3 — First Date with Harry Styles (26:05): Let’s just say, it would be hard to come back from this one… But, she did. ICONIC!
