Vintage Espionage Wine Tasting; Sips and Stories with Former CIA Officers

Vintage Espionage, a Wine Tasting Event with an Espionage Twist

Join two former CIA officers on Saturday, 12 April 2025 at 2:30 PM-4:30 PM and hear their real-life stories from exotic locales around the world while enjoying a blind wine tasting of two sparkling, two Chardonnay, and two Pinot Noir. Can you guess which are Old World wines and which are New World wines? All are welcome to try so gather your family, friends, visitors, neighbors, partners etc... and join us! Must be 21.

For security reasons your sommelier for the afternoon will remain encrypted, known only as DECANTER/1 (C/1). C/1 lived and served around the world. She’s an expert in relationship building and persuasion and guides you through a blind tasting of old-world and new-world wines. Together you’ll assess and evaluate her selections the way a sommelier would.

Along the way enjoy stories from a life on the front lines of intelligence operations from C/1 and Spyher Founder Rosanna Minchew. Be sure to bring your burning questions about wine and the world of spies!

Whether you're a wine connoisseur or simply love intrigue, Vintage Espionage promises an afternoon you won't want to miss. Gather your friends and join us for an unforgettable afternoon of wine, and tales of espionage.

We're especially excited to partner with 1310 Kitchen & Bar in Georgetown, a perfect venue nestles amongst the spy sites of an iconic Georgetown neighborhood!
