Tastings With a Theme
Our wine and spirit tastings are built around a question worth debating. Take “Greek vs Italian”: two ancient wine cultures, hundreds of indigenous grapes, and a side-by-side flight that lets you decide for yourself. Grapes like Assyrtiko and Aglianico share the table, and the conversation takes care of itself.
We host tastings at partner restaurants and lounges across the city, from Elia in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn to Manhattan favorites. Past evenings have included whiskey tastings, chef’s menu tastings and speed dating paired with wine.
Great for couples, friends and solo guests
Seating is limited, which keeps groups small and conversation easy. Come with a date, bring a friend, or come alone and leave with new ones.

Tasting FAQs
Still have questions? Contact us.
Do I need to know about wine to attend?
Not at all. Tastings are hosted and explained as you go, so they suit curious beginners as much as seasoned enthusiasts.
How many people attend a tasting?
Tastings are small. Seats are limited at every event, for example around 35 at our restaurant tastings, and the exact number is shown on the listing.
Can I come alone?
Yes. Tastings are social by design, and there’s time before and after the flight to meet the people around you.
Is food included?
It depends on the event and venue. The listing for each tasting explains what’s included and what can be ordered from the menu.
