About this Event
Gay Men's Speed Wine Tasting® & Cheese Social NYC (25–49)
NEW WINES. NEW CHEESES. NEW GUYS. 🍷🧀
Sip. Savor. Socialize. Maybe Even Flirt.
Good wine. Great cheese. Even better company!
Introducing Speed Wine Tasting®, a fresh twist on NYC's gay men's social scene! We're bringing together men ages 25–49 for an evening of guided wine tasting, gourmet cheese pairings, and new connections.
Think wine tasting meets speed dating — without the pressure of a date!
Forget endless swiping, awkward introductions, and standing around at a bar wondering who to talk to. At Speed Wine Tasting®, we do the introductions for you!
Each round brings a new wine, a delicious cheese pairing, and new men to meet. It's part wine education, part speed socializing, and potentially a whole lot of chemistry!
Whether you're looking to make new friends, meet someone special, or simply enjoy a fun night out, Speed Wine Tasting makes connecting easy — one pour at a time!
Six wines. Six rounds. Lots of new guys to meet!
🍷 YOUR ADMISSION INCLUDES
- Six Wine Tastings: Discover six different wines while exploring new flavors, styles, and favorites. 3 oz pours a mix of red, white, orange , sparkling and rose.

- Expert Wine Guidance: Learn from an experienced wine professional who makes discovering wine fun, approachable, and entertaining. No wine knowledge required!
- Six 15-Minute Speed Tasting Rounds: Meet a new group of guys each round through fun, relaxed conversations while sipping a different wine and savoring its delicious cheese pairing. New round, new wine, new guys to meet — and maybe a little chemistry!

🧀 HOW SPEED WINE TASTING® WORKS
1. SIP. Discover a new wine with guidance from our wine professional. Learn a little, taste a little, and find a new favorite!
2. SAVOR. Sample gourmet cheeses from Murray's Cheese and explore how their flavors complement your wine.
3. SOCIALIZE. Meet new guys during a fun, 15-minute social round. We'll handle the introductions, so you can focus on the conversation (and maybe a little flirting!).
4. SWITCH & REPEAT! New wine. New cheese. New guys. Six rounds of sipping, savoring, and socializing!
No wine expertise required. No awkward introductions. No pressure to find a date.
Just show up, grab a glass, and let the connections happen naturally!
💕 KEEP THE CONNECTIONS GOING WITH SPEEDMATCHAPP!
Meet a guy you'd love to see again? Maybe there's romantic chemistry, maybe you've found a new friend, or perhaps you've met your next wine-tasting partner!
That's where SpeedMatchApp comes in!
During the event, you'll receive a simple link to access our matching system — no app download required!
As you meet new guys throughout the evening, you can privately indicate who you'd like to connect with again. You'll also be able to purchase some of the bottles of wine you sampled at a discount following the event.
Choose:
- DATE 💕 — There's chemistry, and you'd like to explore it!
- FRIEND 🤝 — You'd love to hang out again, platonically.
- BOTH 🍷 — You're open to seeing where the connection goes!
When the interest is mutual, it's a match! You'll receive each other's first name and email address so you can take it from there.
No awkward number exchanges. No pressure. No guessing whether the interest is mutual.
Just real connections that can continue long after the last sip!
🏳️🌈 COME SOLO. LEAVE WITH NEW CONNECTIONS.
Let's face it — meeting new guys in NYC shouldn't require another dating app!
Maybe you'll find your next date, a new best friend, your next wine-tasting buddy, or simply enjoy a fantastic evening with great company.
Our Gay Men's Speed Wine Tasting is designed for men ages 25–49 who want to meet others in a fun, welcoming, and social atmosphere.
Come solo or bring a friend! We'll make sure everyone has opportunities to meet new people throughout the evening.
It's not just about finding the perfect wine pairing. It's about finding your kind of people!
🎟️ LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE!
To keep the wine tasting intimate, the conversations flowing, and the experience enjoyable for everyone, space is limited.
Don't spend another night swiping when you could be sipping!
Grab your ticket and get ready to meet some new guys — one glass at a time!
