Now, more than ever, we are searching for things that bring us joy. Wine is one of those things that bring people together. Although we cannot get together physically, we can always connect virtually. Online wine tastings are not exactly a new concept, but with the recent lockdown restrictions, the online world for wine tasting is growing exponentially.

For the first time, the exclusive London private members club 67 Pall Mall has opened its virtual doors to the public. Hosting wine tasting sessions three times a week via Zoom they give you access you to the club’s top sommeliers and guest winemakers. Join in online masterclasses, tastings and discussions with other participants tuning in from around the world with their chosen bottle that fits in with the prearranged theme.

Wineries have also jumped on this trend.

Inman Family Wines in Santa Rosa, California have invited their customers to choose from special tasting packs online. Then join in the free happy hour on Facebook Video Chat to discuss the wines and ask questions. Donating a percentage of their proceeds to Meals on Wheels and free shipping this is a fun way to try new wines while giving back to a good cause. For tastings closer to home check out Eventbrite for all local offerings.
