Let the record show that the folks over at Fine Wine are serious about wine and curating memorable moments. The group, hailing from Queens, New York last year locked in with the company of Central Park, at the infamous SummerStage after a three-year hiatus. With Instagram-ready photo installations and a variety of distinct wines and spirits, the Fine Wine Series made a strong mark on their home base New York City while staying in their lane. Well, the series continues. Tickets are now available for their event which includes a 3-hour wine tasting where the theme is ‘Finest Look of Wine’, Saturday, August 19th in Mount Vernon, New York.

In their most recent event ‘The Sweet Escape Wine Festival 2023’ in the nation's capital, it's safe to say the FOMO was real for all who did not attend. But when did this powerhouse group begin?

All success stories have an origin. The innovative and influential Henry Ford is quoted saying “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” The "Original" group began their event hosting in the summer of '08 on Rockaway Boulevard but who or what can be credited for their longevity? Event planning, especially in New York City, thrives on a dynamic fusion of meticulous organization. And the caliber of their events suggests a relentless pursuit of excellence. This city's young professional network is a goldmine for talent, from expert vendors to skilled performers. The key to their success lies in harnessing the city's pulsating energy, understanding its ever-changing trends, and weaving these elements together into an experience that resonates with attendees long after the event concludes. Now that’s a far way from their humble start in 2008.

Dozie Osondu, a representative from the group, when asked how important the dress code is responded saying “It’s very important. It adds to the elegance of the event. We push for the guests to pull up in their best and love when they follow the dress theme. It’s a way for them to creatively express themselves through fashion."

“The Series is unique in its own right. We provide a fashionable platform for curious minds to network, be entertained and learn about wine.” - Mike Valeus

As stated by the conglomerate, the Fine Wine Series is more than an experience–it is a lifestyle guide. One that embodies excellence by embracing and amplifying the cultural love of luxe. Through premier wine experiences, they are dedicated to cultivating an audience of music, fashion and wine enthusiasts. Tickets are still available for ‘The Wine Valley Weekend’ August 18 - 20th. With much emphasis on the fashions, what will you be wearing to this event?
