Forget Cupid, you've got a Wine Blind Date for Valentine Day!

This year on Valentine's Day, let Cupid take a break and give wine the chance to be your true love. After all, a bottle of wine has never let anyone down, and it's always there to lift your spirits with no strings attached.

"The Totally Blind Tasting" is a unique, mysterious, and intriguing experience that enhances the perceptions of taste, smell, and touch by voluntarily choosing not to use the sense of sight.

Sight is a sense that holds great sway over all our actions and decisions. The sense of sight is dominant, inhibiting other senses and monopolizing the information our brains use to make decisions and judgments. The experiment starts with the premise that in the face of uncertainty regarding color and appearance, smell, taste, and tactile senses will guide us in evaluating wine and appreciating dishes.

Dinner in the dark is an original experience that allows us to reassess our perception of smell and taste while undergoing a surprising, completely different experience by eliminating dependence on sight." Ioana Bidian, Wine Expert

As the evening progresses, you will discover the distinct personality of each wine and the surprising textures of culinary creations. Is the wine in your glass a fluent speaker, leaving you with a lingering sensation? Or perhaps it's a bit stubborn, surprising you with unexpected aromas. Does the wine in your glass match the texture and flavors of the food? Like any blind date, the element of surprise keeps things interesting.
