Hyderabad Wine Club is formed with an idea
of promoting wine culture in Hyderabad. There is more and more
awareness about wines. Changing life styles, frequent travels abroad,
more and more women employment, increase in per capita income,
international research on health benefits of wines have combined
together to create wine awareness in India. Wine is more of a food
beverage, a fermented fruit juice than an alcoholic drink It is high
time that Hyderabadis should think about wine and shift their preference
towards wines. The idea is to shift peoples preference from hard
liquors to Wine.
The club, by organizing continuous wine
related events, would like to educate people about wine. It is not just
a platform to drink and dine, but a place to create opportunity to
understand and learn nuances of wine. Members will have opportunities
to meet Wine Makers, Wine Specialists to learn more about wines, taste
different wines for comparative assessment and share wine related
knowledge. Members will have preference in attending wine related events
with a discount. This is purely a non-commercial, non-profit making and
non-political organization.
