Grape Nuts and Foodies, let's get together to eat, drink, and be merry! We will host wine tastings and dinners as well as spirit and beer tastings in the Spartanburg an Greenville area. If your just getting into wine and food or are a connoisseur of fine wines and spirits, we can create a place where you can feed your love of fantastic creative cuisine and passion for fermentation.

We meet at DunBurks in Easley, SC, quarterly on the last Thursday of every month for a wine tasting, education and great fun! Explore wines from around the world and learn more about wines, food pairings and more!

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.

When we are nurtured, we open up and offer our unique influence for good, and blossom to o …

This group is for those who love wine and want to learn more about it.

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!
