Wine Lovers

Hello everyone, welcome to the first Zurich Wine Circle tasting 🍾 Let’s enjoy some of our favourite wines together and connect by the lake Zurich over a relaxing sunset.☀️🍷 The idea is simple: Everyone brings one bottle (max. 25 CHF) and we taste together in a laid-back setting. Theme: Easy drinking wines – bring a bottle you enjoy and would recommend. I’ll bring a cooling box with ice and a few glasses. If we are more people, feel free to bring your own glass. No need to be an expert – just curiosity and good vibes. If the weather is bad, we’ll adapt or change the date… Looking forward to meet you all, Philipp

Die Sonne strahlt, die Tage sind lang - was gibt es Schoneres, als sich auf den Rollen auszutoben und den warmen Wind im Haar zu spüren? Die Greifensee Route ist angenehm zu fahren, hat wenig Steigung. Der Rundweg bietet wunderschöne Naturkulisse mit Blick auf Wasser, Schilflandschaften und Berge. Nach der sportlichen Runde lassen Wir den Abend gemütlich ausklingen an einem Feuer, geniessen die Gemeinschaft und tauschen uns aus über das Thema: "Der Weg ist das Ziel." Vormerkung: Der Anlass findet nur bei trockenen Strassen statt! Fals das Wetter nicht mitspielt weichen wir auf ein Alternativprogramm aus :)

Come join us for a hike through one of the region's most scenic and storied landscapes — wildflowers in bloom, birdsong in the trees, and the smell of the forest after a spring shower. Pure bliss.

From there we cross over to Berenberg — where we'll explore the atmospheric ruins of the former Monastery Berenberg, a truly magical spot steeped in centuries of history. From there, we descend into charming Wülflingen and push back up through lush spring forest trails towards Töss. The highlight? Passing through the legendary Totentäli — a place wrapped in myth and mystery — now featuring a brand-new bridge over the ponds. With the spring light filtering through the trees, it promises to be simply breathtaking. We'll finish in Töss, right at the Bus 1 stop, so getting home is a breeze. 📅 Date: Sunday, April 19 📍 Meeting Point: Train Station Pfungen (Meeting Point) 🕥 Meeting Time: 10:45 AM 🏁 Estimated Return: Between 2:00 and 3:00 PM at Winterthur HB 📏 Distance: 8.6 km (feels like a 12 km hike thanks to \~300 m of elevation gain) 🚆 Getting There — take the S41 (direction Bülach): • From Winterthur HB: depart 10:36 AM → arrive Pfungen 10:45 AM • From Winterthur Töss: depart 10:39 AM → arrive Pfungen 10:45 AM ✅ What to bring: • Sturdy hiking boots • Plenty of water • Snacks to keep your energy up along the way Whether you're a seasoned hiker or simply ready to shake off the last of winter — this is the perfect spring adventure.

Let’s start simple. Technoverts is a new group for introverts in tech who want to connect without the noise and pressure of traditional networking events. This first meetup is a relaxed, small-group coffee gathering—no agenda, no icebreakers, no expectations beyond showing up. If you work in or around tech (cybersecurity, IT, cloud, dev, data, etc.) and prefer quieter, more meaningful conversations, you’ll likely feel at home here. What to expect: • A small group (intentionally capped) • A calm, conversation-friendly setting • The option to participate as much—or as little—as you want

Join your DTs friends for a relaxed spring afternoon of board games, wine, and great company at one of Loudoun’s favorite wineries. We’ll gather indoors and outdoors, depending on the weather. We’ll have a fire pit set up, along with s’mores and light snacks, so come ready to play, sip, and enjoy some cozy vineyard vibes. Bring your favorite board game to share — or just come ready to join in! ### Wine & Tastings Guests may purchase wine by the glass or bottle throughout the afternoon. For those interested, optional wine tastings are available for $20 per person (six wines, seated and guided). ### Food Fabbioli offers gourmet small plates, cheese and charcuterie, fresh-baked baguettes, chocolates, and other light fare available for purchase. Outside food is welcome on the grounds, so feel free to bring snacks or a picnic to share. (No large coolers or aromatic foods, please.) This is a casual, drop-in style gathering — come when you can, stay as long as you like, and enjoy a laid-back afternoon around the fire with your tribe.

Nestled in the hillside of Bluemont, Virginia looking towards the western skies, Twin Oaks Winery provides a whimsical and intimate setting to enjoy artisan wines by the glass or bottle overlooking the vineyard. We will enjoy 50-mile views of the Shenandoah Valley from the outdoor heated deck if the weather permits. If not we will be in the tasting room. **NO OUTSIDE FOOD IS PERMITTED.** [Check out their menu here](https://twinoakswinery.com/menu)

Carrie Welling’s bold, sultry voice is reminiscent of Sheryl Crow’s grit. She has Tom Petty’s pen and Stevie Nicks’ heart, upstaged only by the genuine love and connection this performer has with her fans both on and off stage. Welling’s latest album, *Crack in the Chaos,* invites listeners on a journey to search for the joy in the turmoil - the glimmer of light that always guides us. Melodies rich in Americana pop blend seamlessly with her singer-songwriter roots and empowered, honest lyrics. But while this new collection of songs maintains Welling’s signature raw vulnerability and authenticity - qualities that are essential to her creative process - fans will certainly take note of a more mature and evolved sound. **Come make friends at our dessert and drink potluck! Please bring a dessert or beverage to share!** ***Details with our address and other info will be sent to you before April 18th.*** **Doors open at 7:00 pm. Music will begin \~7:45 pm.** **We kindly ask you leave your shoes at the door.** Wear your craziest socks to win a prize! Boring socks are...boring! :) **Suggested donation: $25-30/person (100% of all contributions are given directly to the musician) (Cash or Venmo)** Fans are not the only ones who have seen Carrie for the brilliant artist she is. From touring with Delta Rae, Wyn Starks, Carbon Leaf, David Cook and Bowen Young to singing on the *Melissa Etheridge Cruise* and *Sail Across the Sun Cruise* with Train, Welling’s voice shines boldly and brightly the moment she takes the stage. Whether performing in The Netherlands and Germany, headlining Norwegian Cruises and the Meeting of the Minds Festival, or dazzling crowds at the Songwriter Island Showcase in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, Carrie Welling shows no signs of stopping.

Kalero Vineyard is a beautiful 130-acre farm nestled on Short Hill Mountain in Western Loudoun County. Weather permitting, we will be on their great covered patio. If it rains we will be inside the tasting room. We are allowed to bring our own food so bring something to share. They have a good selection of their vineyards wines as well as a few produced in California. https://kalerovineyard.com/

We've done this event before and it was interesting and fun — and this time we've booked a private group tasting just for us! Tour this small chocolate factory and then taste a spectrum of flavors of (dark) single origin chocolate, with expert guidance very much like a wine tasting! There's also a small chocolate shop of course :) Cost is $25 per person (payable to me, I've reserved for a private group of 4 people and we can add more as we wish). The location is in Chantilly and not convenient to metro (though there is a bus). I am happy to pick up participants at the East Falls Church (if you're riding from downtown) or West Falls Church (if you want to park) metro stations, and it's about a 20-minute drive from there. It's recommended that you bring a bottle of water to cleanse your palate :) Hope you can join!

\*\* Tickets are $20 and can be purchased [here.](https://www.totalwine.com/class/pop-open-a-party-great-sparkling-wines/potomac-yard/virginia/e/ec724417) \*\* Please join us at Total Wine in Potomac Yards on Thursday April 23rd at 6:30PM as we sample a variety of sparkling wines.

You’ll also learn about our favorite sparkling styles from Spain, Crémant de Bourgogne from Burgundy, and, of course, Champagne.
