This group will provide a way to hook into the local wine tastings around the area, and do some of our own. We will also do some social tastings, and perhaps even some private ones. The goal will be to learn about wine, socialize and have fun. It does not matter if you know a lot or nothing, this will not be an intimidating group. There will be some social wine tastings and some more organized, guided tastings.

I love cooking food from all over the world, trying new spices, exploring new restaurants and discovering great wines in the company of wonderful people. This group does informal cooking classes, dinner parties, recipes, dining out, wine tastings, culinary tours, and the list goes on and on….. A Bon Vivant is a person having cultivated, refined, and sociable tastes especially with respect to food and drink. Our group takes the snobbery out of being a Bon Vivant and injects tons of fun! Whether i …

"To bring together and serve all who believe that a right understanding of good food and wine is an essential part of personal contentment and health, and that an intelligent approach to the pleasures and problems of the table offers far greater rewards than the mere satisfaction of appetite."

Networking, Women and Wine was created to nurture the noble traits of women through meaningful connections and wine experiences. We gather each month to reinforce each others dreams, create authentic and meaningful friendships that lead to lasting connections. Wine is our mascot for the simple fact that wine and wine making are symbols of creativity, individuality and authenticity. And so it is with women. When we are nurtured, we open up and offer our unique influence for good, and blossom to o …

The Groups purpose is to bring others together in the community through the Arts, which is lacking.  If you would like to meet others that like to drink wine while painting, this would be a fun group to join.

Since there aren't any dining out groups in the area that include brunch and lunch, I thought it would be a good idea to have one! This is for all singles or couples over the age of 21. We will explore many restaurants in the area, and also have special events such as cooking classes, wine tastings and outings. I look forward to your company!

There have been many requests for a travel group, and I will plan many outings that involve day or weekend trips, plus local events. We will focus on activities that our significant others may not be as enthusiastic about as we are - shopping comes to mind!

Hi, I am Lainie, the founder of the Charlotte Cooking Chicks. I created this group for women to cook, enjoy wine and get together. I founded and ran a similar group in Virginia called The Roanoke Cooking Chicks - I just moved to the area in January and I'm excited to start a similar group here. We have themed events at different members' homes and we'll all bring dishes or wines to fit the theme. It doesn’t have to be fancy, and you don’t have to be a great cook to join. The group can evolve as …

It's hard for someone who is in their late 20s, 30's or 40's to meet people outside of work.

Anyhow, if you are..... between ~25-50 yrs old, …
