About this Event

A Wine Tasting Where Strangers Become Friends

​This one's a little different and we think you're going to love it!

​Join us for our first event at District Winery, DC's first working winery on the Navy Yard waterfront. Instead of our traditional seated dinner format, this is a 4-flight wine tasting experience with light bites.

​Think craft wines made on-site, a charcuterie spread, and a summer evening on the water with a room full of interesting people you haven't met yet.

"Loved the location; good group of people. The conversations were interesting. The food and service was impeccable." — DC Guest


​About the Venue

​District Winery is DC's first operational commercial winery — a boutique winery set in the heart of The Yards along the Anacostia River in Navy Yard. Winemaker Phil Arras produces premium small-batch wines on-site, combining traditional technique with creative experimentation. The co-founders, Brian Leventhal and John Stires, previously opened Brooklyn Winery in Williamsburg before bringing the concept to DC.

​This is our first event at District Winery, and our first wine tasting format in DC. We couldn't think of a better setting to try something new.

  • Mix & Mingle — Arrive and start meeting the group in the tasting room
  • 4-flight wine tasting — A curated selection of white and red wines, all made on-site at District Winery
  • Light bites — Chef's whim charcuterie boards, Caesar salad, chicken bites, rigatoni, and fresh focaccia to share
  • Seat rotations so you meet everyone in the room
