Drinking wine, according to ancient greek sect The Orphics, was a symbolic religious ceremony. The intoxication that they sought was that of "enthusiasm," of union with the god. They believe themselves in this way, to acquire mystic knowledge not obtainable by ordinary means.
Why we drink wine today?
(1) wine tastes good, their aromas are complex and lead into the flavours experienced on the palate.
(2) their flavours, too are complex and should register right along the tongue with a ligering aftertaste.
(3) Drinking great wine with superb matching food definitely stimulates human interactions, opens up pleasant conversations. I discover Spanish Tapas is a very social cuisine for wine drinking.
We organize meetups over different cultural activities (wining and dining at various sydney fine restaraunts and wine bars, attending a concert or a book reading, visiting an art gallery, seeing a theatre play or a fashion parade etc), we believe that participating actively in those cultural activities does not only enhance your appreciation of fine cultures but also stimulates social interactions among members. My preference is to meet up at interesting cultural events followed by a dinner party at a fine restaurant or a wine bar.We prefer local unique venues with a soul. We recommend you rsvp the event at your earliest convenience if you are interested in attending, spots are limited for each event as we are only able to book small group with most popular wine bars&restaurants. Our parties are not for blind dates, please make sure you have an ID photo on your meet up file and answering all profile questions. it will only take two minutes and we thank you for your kind cooperation.
Everyone's welcome, whether you are singles or couples, from new bouquet-sniffers to educated connoisseurs. Restaurants don't have to be chains and wines don't have to be brands.Take risks when you try a new wine or a new restaurant. Be open-minded and share your discoveries with us and your suggesting any interesting venues will be highly appreciated. So let's have a pleasant stimulating conversation over a glass of pinor nior.
