Off The Vine is not just a wine shop that's been around for almost 30 years, offering weekly tastings for the past two decades, engaging palates and senses, offering suggestions on techniques and faux pas too! From large corporate receptions, to small group & social tastings, Holly & Marius Donnelly are known for legendary events both here at Off The Vine and at their now closed Trinity Hall Irish Pub in Dallas.
To Learn Wine We Have To TASTE Wine ..... A Lot!
Holly would tell you that her first bad food wine pairing was her A HA moment which spurred her to spend the next 30 years tasting, learning, pairing, listening, visiting and tasting some more.
When Holly hosts the tasting, her friendly approach, quick humor and years of tasting - sometimes as many as 100 wines a week - allows for an hour and a half jam packed full of tastes, reasons, places and anecdotes that entertain and affirmation on what you are finding in the wine.
Marius hosted luminaries of the whiskey trade at the Pub in Dallas for twenty years, and was the first in Dallas to offer a regular monthly Whiskey tasting program, catering to everyone from first time drinkers to collectors and connoisseurs .
Our tastings are designed to be not only Legendary but also light hearted and relaxed, improving guests knowledge of the tastes they like, and being able to describe some that they dislike which makes buying at retail so much easier!. Our events are interactive and engaging and each one is produced for a specific party. We'll work from your objective and deciding on the theme, to selection & accompaniments, we have hosted Dinner parties for four, and larger scale events for groups in the hundreds.
Popular themes presented in formats from reception to formal dinners can include:
► Wines of the World : Varietals, Regions, Countries, Old / New World, Northern / Southern Hemisphere
► Whiskies : Irish, Scotch, American, International, Regional, Singles / Blends, Distillers or Producers
► Sparkling & Sabers : Opening Bubbly Wines with Sabers, and learning about Sparkling from Champagne to Prosecco
► Beer : Styles, Variations, Belgians, Sours, Large Formats and High ABV's
Have a Birthday, Graduation, Promotion, Retirement, Pre-Wedding, Family Gathering, Anniversary, Celebration or Pre-Travel how-tos in mind? We can help you with that. Our Cellar space is private and comfortable for small groups, is not open to the public and can be adapted to suit your occasion with ease & flexibility.
