Is there anyone out there that would be interested in joining a wine tasting club. The thought is that we would meet once a month and try new wines, talk about and rate them. We could have some paired cheeses as well.

Sounds great, should be fun. Count me in. Where would this be held?

Thanks for your reply. I know there is another club here in the villages and I'm trying to get information about that club, but what I know is that they get filled up really fast. There are a number of venues we could use. Maybe a rec center or Put A Cork In It, I'm sure they would love to have a club meet there. As the responses come in we can get a better direction.

I might be interested depending on where & when. I'm a wino !! LOL A place also that might be interested in doing something is Flats. They have a Wine Down on Wednesdays which is a wine tasting with a buffet. Could be a once in awhile addition.

Thanks Bonnie, we'll see what the response is and I'll keep you in the loop. Thanks for your suggestion, that's a great idea. We could even move around from place to place.

I'm surprised at the lack of response. Not sure how this sight works, it seems to be that after a couple of days these threads get lost and no one sees them again. I know there is interest because there is another wine club that holds 75 people and it fills up almost instantly, so there are a lot of leftovers that don't get to attend.

I think there would be a lot of interest. I hold them myself with friends and neighbors. However it appears you are a business that does this, not individuals who are interested in wine and doing it as a not for profit club. At least you have an ad here as a business. If that is not the case, then please explain. But I see a 32 sips ad running under every post. Kind of like the Geerling and Wade Traveling Vineyard or wine.com has one as well.

If you want to start a wine club where we are all doing it as a club, great. If your promoting your wine sales, then I am not.

I just saw this post. I would be VERY interested in a wine club. We lived in California and loved the wines out there and I'd love to learn more and become a wine snob too. Sounds GREAT...count me in!

I'm with l2. I love wine. I might buy wine from you. I might attend an advertised wine tasting at your place of business. But, I don't want to join a club whose real purpose is to try to sell me something.
