Palo Alto Blind Wine Society

🍷 Palo Alto Blind Wine Society

Taste. Learn. Guess. Repeat.

We’re a community of wine lovers, sommeliers-in-training, and curious sippers who meet weekly in Palo Alto to refine our palates through blind tasting.

Each week, we explore 3–6 wines completely blind — working through sight, nose, palate, and structure before the reveal. This format keeps things fun, approachable, and educational for all levels. Whether you’re new to wine or work in the industry, you’ll leave with new insights (and maybe a new favorite bottle).

What to Expect
• A structured blind tasting format (with professional deductive tasting sheets)
• Weekly rotating themes (Chardonnay showdown, Spanish reds, bubbles, Italy’s hidden gems, etc.)
• Friendly, inclusive discussions — no wine snobbery
• A sleek, professional setting designed for learning and connection

How It Works
• Bring 1 bottle that matches the week’s theme (wrapped to stay blind)
• Contribute $5 (very optional) for glassware, water, and light snacks
• We provide tasting sheets, guided discussion, and a polished wine club experience

• Space is limited. RSVP for this week’s location. Please cancel early so we can include those on our waitlist.

Who Should Join
• Wine professionals (restaurant, retail, winery, distributor)
• Students of wine certifications (CMS, WSET, SWS, etc.)
• Curious beginners eager to learn by tasting
• Anyone who loves wine, community, and a good challenge

📅 Monday Nights @ 7:00 PM
