Discover New Gems at our Wine Tasting Soirée

We have designed this tasting for those who want to try hard-to-find boutique wines that they would not ordinarily have a chance to taste. Now you can taste & order (at Guild member discounts with discounted shipping) while mingling among the art.

Members who pay in advance can bring nonmember guests for free.Refunds made up to 24 hours before the event.

To celebrate the start of summer, we present an array of limited releases from a carefully selected group of artisan wineries representing different appellations. We feature microwineries that rarely have their own tasting room. Meet the vintners who will discuss their unique styles of winemaking. Think of it as a "Wine Trunk Show" with munchies. [We no longer partner with WineSocials]

    Appreciated being able to order at discount the wines tasted, which were completely new to me. Great group of folks and enjoyed talking to the winemakers. Regretable that Tom threatens to end this series.
