Who's hosting? Sandy Aichner McAlpine

How to find us: I'll have my name tag on

Let's meet up for a mix and mingle at The Brickhouse in Davidson on Monday night and take advantage of their half price bottles of wine under $40! They also have 50 beers on tap so there is something for everyone. Bring your friends and let's fill up the bar! We had a huge turnout last time. Just go to the bar and straight back to the end where the couch is. We'll have some free apps/munchies and get ready to order a bottle to split with someone, or go in on a bottle with others. Many folks bought a bottle last time and we all sampled each other's selections and it was fun!

The Brickhouse Tavern has graced the heart of Lake Norman, just outside of Charlotte, NC, for over 6 years. Nestled in the refurbished, 120-year-old Davidson Cotton Mill, the Brickhouse Tavern offers a unique ambiance of nostalgia mixed with a contemporary flair. Offering a complete dining experience with a large menu of culinary finesse, you are sure to enjoy the unique setting the Brickhouse Tavern has to offer.

A community based establishment, The Brickhouse Tavern is highly involved with the surrounding region. Working in conjunction with local businesses and organizations, the Brickhouse Tavern prides itself on giving back to the community that helps to create the distinctive dining experience offered.

Who doesn't love 1/2 price bottles of wine under $40? Yeah, that's right! Everyone is responsible for their own tab and transportation. This is not a tasting, but a social mixer event! I'll be there at 6:45pm.

Party on the Patio at Corkscrew in Birkdale and wear your best! And, this one is a dress up tasting!! Come out in your best Black & White outfits!! We will be drinking a grand selection of 4 wines, hand selected by the manager for our group. (The Corkscrew also has beer too) So, come join us for a end of summer night of fun.

We'll be relaxing on the patio, enjoying some wine and cheese, and good friends' company. This wine tasting will consist of 4 wines. You don't necessarily have to do the tasting to come and partake in the wine drinking either! There will be specials by the glass on reds, beers, and more.

It's the same as always -- only a $10 CASH charge. This event is so popular that we often get about 40-50 attendees. Now that the weather is starting to cool down, I imagine that our group will be larger this time and overtake their patio area!

Joe Klosek , the manager at the Corkscrew often hand picks the selection for us and members have been very happy in the past meetups! If you are interested in ordering some bottles of wines after the tasting, the lovely staff will be able to arrange that for you as well.

Please remember to bring cash. Pay and receive your name tag. There will also be specials by the glass and bottle if you prefer to not do the tasting, or if you would like a glass after you've sampled the wines.

Please be responsible. Don't drink and drive. If you need a cab or a designated driver to drive your car home for you, we can easily arrange that as well!

T1 Tapas in Birkdale Village will offer a Wine Tasting in August! T1 Tapas is a modern restaurant on the back corner in the circle at Birkdale Shops that connects people with food and technology. Ever heard of a restaurant that let's you order on a screen at the table, or plug in your ipod/mp3 player at the table? This is IT!!!

The wine tasting will consist of FOUR wines as well as a Flatbread Medley: Crispy flatbread with assorted toppings such as Tomato Basil; Caramelized Onions and Goat Cheese; Wild Mushroom, Goat Cheese and Truffle Oil. They will bake their housemade fresh pretzels and decadent bite size chocolat brownies. The cost will be $12.00 per person. You will pay the restaurant bartender upon arriving. I am looking forward to having you at T1 Tapas.

Please try to keep cancellations of our meetups under 24 hours to a "last minute emergencies" only. The organizers of this group work really hard to provide great wine venues for us to meet at, and get good deals on wine and food and we want to keep the venues happy! When you RSVP and you take up a spot and then continually change your RSVP at the last day or last 24 hours --and YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, then you are doing the group a huge disservice with the wine venues and our reputation. I get an email every time someone changes their RSVP. There are DEFINITE repeat offenders of this. It really must stop. These restaurants order enough food and wine for so many RSVPs and having 15 or more drop-outs in less than 24 hours before an event is irresponsible. It does not give other members who would really like to attend but didn't make the list originally, a chance to change plans, last minute. It's sad that I have to send this out, but please be courteous.
