As a wine lover and, more importantly, a wine educator, you will always hear me talk about or see me write about “wine appreciation.” Sure, you can make a joke like: “I appreciate wine, I drink it every day” or “I appreciate wine; especially when my glass is full.” That’s all good and fine. But I’m talking about something deeper, more meaningful and more beneficial. Therefore, as an extension of my blog - "Charles Springfield: Maneuvering Wine with Style" - and the various events I produce as th …

The name of this group says it all.  Love + Wine.  Wine is wonderfully complex, like us, as individuals.  Some people have a natural taste and inclination for certain flavors, types and colors of wine. Others, look for something a bit more unique and rare.  Many are unexplored and waiting to be discovered. This group should be the place where you can express things that you LOVE and your curiosity or passion about WINE.  The rules are simple.  Social graces are a must. Be curious, open minded, s …

If most of your thirtysomething friends are married with kids and left the city for the suburbs, you may be lacking in much needed friend-talk over wine and snacks or just a low-key night out. This is a casual meet up for any NYC thirtysomethings (single, married, kids, no kids, new in town, ...whatever) looking to get out, have a few glasses of wine (or other cocktail of your choosing), have some laughs and meet some new friends. A survey found out that warm social connections are crucial to ha …

Westchester Wine Enthusiasts is an amateur wine tasting association that endeavors to create a fun and educational environment absent of wine snobbery and collectors' one-upmanship.  Although we have sommeliers, distributors, and vendors participate, we do so simply for the love of wine. As Michael Broadbent once said, "To some, tasting is work, tasting is learning; tasting adds immeasurably to understanding, and understanding to deeper enjoyment." Skeptical of hype, appreciative of the craft, a …

Hey everyone! I joined a few meet up's so far on this site and had a great time in all of them. Lately I have been on this 'wine' kick and been going to a few wine places and wineries in the NYC area! Brooklyn Winery is one of my favorites. They host TV show viewings there as well; (ie. Walking Dead, Mad Men, Breaking Bad) and also do a set of Movies through the summer too. Game of Thrones and other HBO shows also play at Professor Thoms Bar in Manhattan! I personally love to drink and socialize …

This is a group for individuals in Jersey City and surrounding areas who appreciate and want experience more and different types of Whisky, Scotch, & Wine. The idea is to meet up once in a while and each person bring a favorite (or random) Wine, Whisky, or whatever the theme is for the day. In the beginning, we might organize an event at a bar at first so that we get to know each other a bit prior to having events at residences.

In 2007 we started off as a wine tasting group but luckily grew and evolved to so much more. While we continue to focus on small gatherings to learn and teach each other about wine, we have sometimes branched out to have book club discussions or will cook dinner together, go see a film. All have been wine related, so far. As always, your input is encouraged. It you have an idea for a meet up, let us know! Whatever we do, we will keep our meetups small so that we can all talk to and get to know e …
