Calling all soft-life seekers and wine lovers — Wine Down Long Island is back and it’s better than ever. This isn’t just a wine tour — it’s a full-day escape curated exclusively for Black women who need a break, want to reconnect, and deserve to be poured into (literally and emotionally).
We’re headed to one of Long Island’s most scenic vineyards for a laid-back, luxury experience that blends wine, sisterhood, and soul care. Expect thoughtfully selected wine flights, curated bites, cozy vibes, and the kind of laughter that fills you up.
Whether you’re coming with your girls or flying solo, you’ll leave with new connections, clearer energy, and a camera roll full of golden hour magic.
Here’s What Awaits You:
If you’ve been craving a change of pace and the chance to meet other amazing Black women, this is your moment. On August 16, 2025, join us for a day of delicious wine, bites, and unforgettable sisterhood. We’re creating a space for wine lovers to build lasting connections and discover the power of community. Don’t miss this opportunity to sip, relax, and bond with women who truly understand where you’re coming from.
With just 30 spots up for grabs, don’t miss your chance—secure yours before they’re gone!
Can't rave enough about Melanted Meet-Up: Wine Down. It can be challenging meeting new people but this event offered the perfect mix of like-minded women looking to connect all while learning about and enjoying wine in North Fork. Highly recommend this event for any black woman looking for a welcoming space organized by an equally welcoming founder :)
