I Like Red (and white) Wine is a group for GAY wine and food lovers. The idea is to provide an alternative outlet for GAY MEN to meet to pursue this interest and to also provide other social opportunities. Learning about legs and noses is great but getting together because you simply enjoy wine/food and to meet people is better. This isn't so much about learning but getting together because of a common theme. The idea is to create a community with a real life outlet. Hopefully, we will be able t …

Looking to meet new people in the gay community without having to go to the city? Look no further! This group will hopefully serve as an opportunity for those of us in the northern suburbs to make new friends and plan fun and unique social outings. It can be difficult finding other local LGBT folks when we're limited to the downtown scene. The lack of suburban venues for the gay community can often feel isolating, so let's change that! I welcome anyone to join this group, and I look forward to t …

This group is for women from 21-30 who love to read (especially love stories) .After graduating college and entering the real world it can be hard to find where you fit in. This is the perfect place to meet new people, have fun, drink wine, and indulge in steamy romance novels. We will meet every month to every 2 weeks over a glass of wine to discuss the novel and just do some "girl talk".

Northside Wine Collection Club is an established form of alternative investment that can offer impressive returns. The wine market is based upon simple supply and demand economics. Bordeaux has the most stable financial market of all wine producing regions, while in each decade only 3-4 vintages out of every 10 have wines of a high enough quality for investment purposes. A chateau can only produce a unique and finite amount of wine each year. As this is happening the wine is maturing and becomin …

The idea behind this group is to offer a place for people interested in wine to experience wine together. Learning about wine on your own is tough and I find quick tastings at wine shops or huge crowded wine events equally unhelpful. Here we can have a small group, take our time, and get to know more about wines and each other. Whether you know nothing about wine or you're an expert, all that matters is that you're interested. My hope is to do small group tastings that I know I always want to d …
