Event Details

Discover Your Wine Personality - Celebrate DC Wine Week - Support the DC Start-Up Community

Join Vinolovers during the second annual DC Wine Week to celebrate our soft launch with a special tasting hosted by The Dunes.

Vinolovers is a DC based start-up that is modernizing the wine subscription club by creating a buying experience that is personalized to your tastes. 

For this exclusive kick-off event we'll be pouring eight unique, palate pleasing wines selected to represent various wine personalities. Buttery beauties will fall for the toasty chardonnay, while the knockout 100% grenache will be a favorite for power punchers.

Wines will be available for purchase for those that find a wine that matches their wine personality, and tasting party attendees will also receive an exclusive Vinolovers subscription discount offer for our full launch this fall.

Tickets are $30 and include wine tastings and chef prepared food pairing. A DJ will provide musical entertainment, and a raffle will be held for a copy of The Wine Bible and other wine party favors.
