Now Taking Reservations for Wine Tastings, Private Dinner Parties, and Holiday Parties


Wine Tastings

Featuring Mr. Miguel de la Mata as your private wine instructor.

We focus on wines that truly represent their region of origin’s grapes and winemaking techniques. BUTTERFLY likes to offer unique, reasonably priced wines in addition to the most popular six varietals –Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Riesling, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Our guest speaker will begin the tasting with relatively simple wines, and gradually move on to more complex wines. All of the wines can be made available for purchase if you or your guests discover a new wine that you have to add to your collection.

Our agenda is educational with a very social format highlighting old and new world wine regions. A BUTTERFLY Wine tasting offers stress-free hosting and guarantees a good time for all.

Private Dinner Party

BUTTERFLY works with the best caterers and winemakers in our nation's capital and the beautiful Sandhills area of North Carolina for a fun evening of good food and wine in your home, private party space, or our favorite Tasting Room located in Raleigh, NC near RDU Airport. You will experience the magic of how a glass of wine tastes alone and the dramatic effect when paired with food. We will send you sample menus using seasonal ingredients. After you pick your preferred menu, we will suggest appropriate wines for each course. BUTTERFLY Private Dinner Parties focus on the new theories on food and wine pairing and the current trends in the market place.
