Carpe Vinum is the wine club I’m part of . . . and unfortunately, we’re on a mostly permanent hiatus. This is what happens when your teenagers’ activity schedules eclipse your own. But, I’ve left the links to our adventures up — maybe they will inspire your own wine club adventures.
We meet once a month to learn about wine (we’re on a self-guided tour), and how to pair it with food. But this isn’t “wine club” . . . it’s wine club. We have fun (a lot of it) but, there’s an academic focus. We choose a different theme each month — it could be wine focused, or it could be food focused. It comes with an expectation that we’ll do some research about the wine we bring and the food we pair it with.
We eat some amazing foods and drink some amazing wines. Please click around . . . maybe you’ll find some ideas for wine club tasting themes to try at your house!

It’s a super fun group . . . we’ve been at it for over 3 years now! And we’ve still just scratched the surface of learning about wine. We’ve had some amazing food and spectacular wines. I look forward to it every month. Salud!!
