Open House Wine & Friends
Wine & Friends: An Evening of Grand Crus & Greater Connections
A GenieFriends x Chat Orange Collaboration
If you’re reading this, you’re invited to something beautifully unexpected.
Join us for an evening where exceptional wines meet meaningful connection, a dinner designed for curious palates who appreciate both the complexity of a great vintage and the joy of real conversation.
✨What Makes This Dinner Magical
This isn't your typical wine dinner. We're blending GenieFriends' mastery of human connection with Chat Orange's passion for authentic, low-intervention wines that tell a story in every glass.
Led by Michael — a former cellar hand in Bordeaux turned Sommelier — you'll journey through carefully selected vintages that challenge convention and celebrate craftsmanship. Each pour is chosen not for prestige, but for character. Each course is designed not to impress, but to create moments worth remembering.

🌀Theme: Swirl, Sip & Story
The best wines are meant to be shared. The best stories unfold when we slow down and truly connect.
