Combine groups of single people and add some wine tasting and it won’t be long before the laughter and the flirting begins. Enter Grapvinesocial.com, a website for wine lovers that organises wine parties for single people. It’s not speed dating, just wine drinking and letting nature take its course. It’s a simple concept that works beautifully. Drinking is social activity but wine drinking makes it much more fun because wine is a subject that provokes endless discussions. The website contains a beginner’s guide for wine novices so even if your wine drinking experience is confined to a few bottles of plonk from your local supermarket then you can soon avail yourself of the basic facts about wine before embarking on some online dating on this site. There’s no sense of wine snobbery in this site. The theme is fun and flirtation with people who enjoy life and the flavours of the vine. The site owners organise dating parties in stylish and fashionable venues around the country, so check the events listings for one near you. There are also wine tours abroad, and they’ve recently introduced girls’ night if you fancy a break from the boys and some wine tasting.
