Private Tastings and Events

Thank you for thinking of Dépanneur Wines for your private tasting or event! We would like to make booking and planning your private event as easy as possible.

THE BASICS:

Our private loft area can accommodate up to about 12 people comfortably. We have crammed a few more, but it can get stuffy etc. We recommend the perfect group size for the space is about 10-12 people. We require a 6 person or $500 min.
Based on what package you choose, our knowledgeable staff will work with you in building a wine line-up you'll love.
If you are interested in renting the entire store and loft, this can be arranged under a different pricing structure. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you'd like more information.

HOW TO BOOK: email info@depanneurwines.com with the below info

Date of Event: Monday, Friday, or Saturday only. Please share three date options starting with your #1 pick.

Time of Event: Only Monday/Friday evenings or Saturday afternoons are available. Please share three time options starting with your #1 pick.

Party Size: Can only accommodate up to 12 people. Please share number of people.

Theme/Reason for Event: Is there a particular theme or celebration?

Staff Prep: Please let us know if you would prefer this to be structured as a private tasting class or an event. A private tasting class includes a presentation from our knowledgeable team and printed educational materials on the wines you'll be tasting. An event, on the other hand, typically begins with a brief wine introduction from us, includes printed educational materials on the wines, and then the remaining time in the loft is yours to enjoy.

If you are interested in renting the entire store and loft, this can be arranged under a different pricing structure. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you'd like more information.
