Sobre nosotros
Get better at wine by tasting it blind. There are a lot of wine tasting meetups in the area, but I haven't found any yet that focus on improving at guessing what a wine is without seeing the bottle.
Blind wine tasting is expensive to do alone - join this meetup to find people to share bottles with!

Maxwell Park Wine Bar, DC 🍷 Monday Apr 13 Blind Wine Tasting (#28)
Maxwell Park, 1336 9th St NW, Washington, DC, USPLEASE READ AS THERE IS AN IMPORTANT CHANGE for the blind tasting at Maxwell Park only: prepayment will be required. Please note that refunds for cancellations are allowed up to 12 hours before the event start time. (This would be 6:15 AM so best to cancel the night before and definitely as soon as you know.)
Please bear with me as we navigate this new process. The real maximum number of attendees will remain at 14, but since the Meetup App won’t let me make it a requirement to pre-pay when you RSVP "Yes," I’m not going to set a cap on Meetup's RSVP list, and we will see how that goes.
Because there is no linkage between the Meetup App and Maxwell’s prepayment link, you can’t rely on Meetup's RSVP feature to know if there are still spots available. You will only know with certainty that the attendee cap has been reached if you are rejected while trying to prepay.
Here is the pre-pay link:

Maxwell Park is 4 blocks from the Mt. Vernon Sq/7th St-Convention Center.
🍷 RSVP Please:
--If your plans have changed, please change your RSVP to No.
Note start time of 6:15 PM! Please plan to arrive on time.
🍷 What is blind wine tasting?
In a blind tasting you use your sense of smell, sight, and taste to try to deduce which variety(wine grape) is in your glass.
🍷 Do I need to be a wine professional?
Definitely not - this group is experience diverse and we welcome both wine newbies and wine pros (and everyone else in between).
🍷 How does this work?
--Please arrive slightly before 6:15pm to grab a seat.
--Maxwell Park will serve us two wine flights: 3 white wines around 6:20 pm and 3 red wines around 7:30 pm. Each flight is $20. A 20% gratuity and tax is added to that. Food and other wines are also available for purchase.
--We will discuss each flight as a group and try to reach somewhat of a consensus. Then comes the big reveal where we discover if our guesses were right.
Full vaccination is required, masks are optional. Unfortunately, while we will try to be as careful as possible, we cannot promise that this will be 100% Covid risk free, please keep that in mind when deciding whether or not to attend. Stay home if you are experiencing any symptoms of Covid 19. Please keep an eye on this event for possible changes.
Hope to see you there !
