What is Vine and Dine?
Calgary's favourite pairing club since 2005!
Whilst we're primarily about wine, VINE & DINE is also about pairing food with that wine, and learning which wines complement the dishes of different cuisines.
We visit many restaurants each month to try new foods and learn which wines to drink with them.
Our gatherings are social events. Guests are seated at long tables so they can meet and chat with other like-minded people.
Wine experts tell you about the wine they are pouring for you – where it comes from, which grapes it is made from, the stories of the vineyard and more. The restaurateur will tell you about their cuisine, where the individual dishes you will taste come from, the ingredients used, and the traditions behind the food.

A typical Vine and Dine evening
After everyone is seated at the place of their choice, our gatherings begin at 6.30pm with introductions to your host and the restaurant.
For guests unaccustomed to wine tasting, before our first sample dish, we often spend a few minutes learning how to taste wine, how to appreciate the aromas and flavours of the different wines we will enjoy that evening.
And then our first dish will arrive and we pour you the wine we suggest to complement it. A wine expert will tell you the stories behind the wine you are drinking and then let you eat, drink and chat to your neighbours. They will also come to each table to answer any questions you may have.
We usually sample six different food portions with six different wines over the evening. Menus for you to take away are provided for you to write your comments and thoughts. They also include details of the dish and the country of origin and recommended retail price of the wine.
At the end of the evening we often celebrate any birthdays or special occasions amongst our guests!
