What we’re about
Boulder Wine Meetup is a group of Boulder County wine enthusiasts who meet to taste and drink wine. No experience is necessary and we are all about having fun.
We have four different types of events:
- Wine Education: These events involve learning about a specific aspect of wine. They are generally smaller (8-20 people) and usually include someone knowledgeable about the subject. No experience is necessary.
- Wine Tastings: These events are the middle ground, usually 15-30 people and designed with tasting in mind. We'll usually discuss the wines and sometimes have score cards to rate them.
- Wine Socials: These are larger events, with 20-60 people, and are as much about the socialization as the wine.
If you have never been to a Boulder Wine Meetup event, don't be shy. Everyone is welcome, everyone makes friends, and you need have no experience or expertise.
If you sign up for a wine tasting, please show up! No-shows and late cancellations make it hard for organizers. We do ask organizers to mark No Shows on this website and we take action to put those at the end of any future waitlist. At most of our events, attendees are asked to bring a bottle of wine and an appetizer to share. Remember you should bring a bottle of which you are proud - not just the cheapest bottle on the shelf. Please don't take home wine - opened or unopened - without the host's permission!
If you would like to host an event, please see this page about hosting.
Please note this group is composed of and run by volunteers. No one pre-screens hosts or checks to make sure hosts are doing things properly. No one pre-screens group members who might attend parties. No one checks to make sure you don't drink too much when you attend a tasting. You take full responsibility for yourself if you participate in this group.
The group is great fun and an excellent way to meet fellow wine fans!

Most importantly, this group is a place to have fun and enjoy yourself. That is only possible by being respectful, kind and courteous to each other at all times. If at any point a member makes another member feel disrespected, threatened, or unsafe in any way, they will get a one time warning to clean up their actions and have a chance to make it up to the other member, any additional incidents will result in immediate removal from the group. No one should EVER feel uncomfortable in the Boulder wine Meetup.
