“Book a rideshare early as downtown Raleigh parking fills up fast on Fridays.”
Trashy Wine Club at Bitter Social is an informal, approachable wine tasting and education event held in Raleigh. Led by a local expert from The Raleigh Wine Shop, this gathering focuses on tasting, snacking, and asking questions without any of the usual pretension associated with wine culture. To plan your visit, note that this is a strictly 21 and over event, making it ideal for a parents' night out or a date night. Tickets cost $17.85 per person, which covers the wine samples and light snacks. Street parking is available nearby, but ridesharing is highly recommended if you plan to sample multiple pours. This event makes an excellent weekend pick because it offers a structured yet highly social environment. You can learn something new about wine varieties in a completely relaxed setting, then head out to dinner nearby in downtown Raleigh afterward.
