About us
Have you ever felt lost in a wine shop or wished you could banter with a sommelier at a restaurant? Do you want to not only enjoy wine but learn more about it. This group is for all wine lovers, from the novice to the expert. The only requirement to join is a love of wine. Types of events could be exploratory wine tasting where we compare different or unique wine styles, blind tastings, visits to local restaurants and wineries (when it is safe to do so), and general get-togethers to drink and talk wine.
While there are no dues to join, some events might require a cost to attend. For example, if we do an exploratory wine tasting of orange/amber wine then costs will be split among attendees. Similarly, events at restaurants and visits to wineries might require an additional cost to attend.
This group is not affiliated with any brand or business.

TERROIR: UNCORKED @ Barcelona Wine Bar on 14th Street
Barcelona Wine Bar, 1622 14th Street NW, Washington, DC, US** Tickets are $71.50 ($65 + tax) and can be purchased here. **
UNCORKED is a walk-around tasting where we open 30 different bottles from our list—a chance to try the cellar of our award-winning wine program. The wines are paired with seasonal paella and passed tapas. Each time we host, we dive into a different theme. This time, we’re uncorking terroir.
Terroir is a French term that refers to the natural environment in which a wine is made. This includes everything– but most often focuses on soil, topography and climate, ultimately producing a bottled sense of place. Our 400+ bottle program deeply focuses on terroir, becoming a collection of places that can be experienced through a pour.
For this UNCORKED, we’re opening 30 wines that we think are some of the clearest expressions of place out there. We can’t wait to share these truly transportive bottles with you.
