Partners of the vine Story
Among the many things that tie best friends Brandon Toney and Christopher Rozario is their enjoyment of fine wine, as well as hosting social events for Black LGBTQ+ couples. Having experienced the connections that have been made over wine in their friendships and romantic relationships, they decided to create an intimate space for the same to happen for other couples. Partners of the Vine is an exclusive traveling wine tasting event that will provide Black LGBTQ+ couples with the perfect blend of experiencing a beautiful date night, and forming friendships. Brandon and Christopher hosted a virtual wine tasting for friends and their partners from around the country. The general consensus from every couple was that they wanted more. Brandon and Christopher hosted an intimate in-person tasting event in Atlanta, GA to announce to their friends the launch of Partners of the Vine as an official business entity. As Partners of the Vine travels to a city near you, we hope to see you and your partner there!
