IRISH singletons are combining their quest for love with their search for the perfect wine.
A brand new online dating company, winedaters.ie, is offering lovelorn people the chance to find their dream match while broadening their knowledge of good wine.
Those opting to use the new service, which is being launched in Dublin this week, get to mingle with the opposite sex while sampling new wines.
The dating experience is the brainchild of David Kavanagh, a well-known dating expert who has been behind a number of novel dating concepts.
He believes the service is the perfect choice for those who have ever considered going on a wine tasting experience but wanted a hint of romance thrown in.
“The wines act as ice-breakers to get everybody chatting and interacting,” said David, who believes the new experience will be a huge hit with the Irish public.
“For many people who hate the idea of speed-dating, this new idea is a great way of breaking the stigma that so many people feel going to singles events,” he added.
Those who attend the winedaters. ie evenings will join other like-minded singletons who will then be matched up at tables of four. The table will then be given an exclusive new wine to sample and discuss. Each participant will be given the opportunity to meet up to 12 potential matches and sample six new wines.
“Once the group have mingled and chatted, the gents change tables and a new wine is delivered to the waiting socialites,” explained David.
Following the event, participants will then log into the website and register their matches. The service will then notify the love interest of the matches within 24 hours.
As a novelty after the event, people who are found to be matches with each another can send bottles of their favourite wines as a token of their affection to their match from the night.
The service is also offering them the opportunity to order discounted wines on the same night
“We liked the idea of allowing gents and ladies, if they so wish, to be chivalrous and romantic. What better way to make contact again than by sending someone a quality bottle of wine,” added David.
The company plans to run events for all ages from 25-60 with each event tailored to suit the energy of the group.
