Upcoming Events
Due to the limited nature of our events we do not offer a refund on tickets purchased if you cannot attend. If you let us know within 48 hours of the start of an event we will issue house credit. After the 48 hour window closes we cannot issue any credit. However, all tickets are transferrable so you are welcome to give or sell them to others. Some events are free for club members but registration/tickets are strongly encouraged. If an event is sold out we may not be able to accomodate you if you just drop in without registering first.
We host three types of events at Tim's Wine Market's Orlando location.
- Our "Masterclass" events are seated, lecture format programs that take a deep dive into specific wine regions and/or grape varieties. These are classroom style tastings conducted in flights with a power point presentation that guides your experience. We also provide cheese and bread at these events.
- Our more frequently conducted programs we call "Tastings In The Round" which are casual events with seating, typically with a special guest. For "Tastings In The Round" you can drop in and leave at your leisure. There is no food provided at these events so please plan accordingly.
- Events that are defined as "Open House" are not seated events as there are typically multiple stations with wine being poured at the same time. Unless otherwise noted in the description of the event, there is no food provided at these events.

JP’s German Adventure
About this event
We recently landed a diverse selection of wines from our friend Johannes Selbach, one of the most important winemakers in Germany. Since assuming control of his family winery in the 1990s, he has acquired several top sites in the Mosel region, resulting in one of the most impressive portfolios we know. JP will lead us through a tasting where we will explore the region through nine wines and a sparkling wine, demonstrating why you should become better acquainted with this marvelous variety. The first flight will compare examples of dry and off-dry predicate and non-predicate wines. Our second flight will feature three 2024 Kabinetts from three neighboring villages. Finally, we will finish with a flight of Grosses Gewächs (Grand Cru) sites as well as their oldest vine parcel. This is going to be an amazing night, but space is limited. Buy Tickets Here

About this event
We hosted a representative from this winery in February as part of our Winter Extravaganza, but now we will have the owner, Sandra Tavares da Silva, in-house. Along with her husband, Jorge Serôdio Borges, they are producing some of the most modern and articulate examples of wines from the Douro River Valley of Portugal. This tasting will take a look at their entry-level wines, Chocapalha, as well as their estate bottlings from Wine and Soul. Stop in and meet Sandra; she is lovely and does a great job presenting her wines.

Italian Reunion
Revisiting Tim’s 2018 Italian Adventure with 8 Winemakers
Wednesday, May 6, 2026
7:00pm - 9:00pm
$25 per person/Club members $22.50
About this event
In the fall of 2018, I was fortunate to spend seven days in northern Italy visiting more than a dozen estates. On this evening, eight of the winemakers or winery owners I visited will be here for another Ivanhoe Row open tasting. We will be showcasing at least 24 wines, and the pouring stations will be set up across Ivanhoe Row, with different wineries presenting in my neighbors' stores. Not only is this an amazing chance to meet the people who make many of our top-selling wines, but it’s also an opportunity to meet our neighbors! These events sell out fast, so don’t wait too long to buy your tickets.
