Eleven Ventures believes magic happens when individuals gather differently. Eleven Ventures creates experiences around life-changing hospitality in elevated environments designed to connect you to something purposeful. These events feature boutique wines, whole food, and live, in-person connection with others ready to really be present. In a world that’s more (dis)connected and distracted than ever, we believe the table still holds the power to transform destiny. Experiences are more than wine tasting and enjoying a meal. These events form friendships, ask big questions, encourage you, and leave you ready for another seat. Subscribe to participate in a new take on hospitality, meet our growers and makers, and find your place at our table. |
| | Let's run it back to the basics. No fancy words to point out (epic, curated, thoughtful, intentional, planned, elevated…) because all those words are simply a part of what makes a human experience so… human. We’ve let the fluffy words fall away, and once you join an experience, you’ll understand some things don't need to be said, they just need to be experienced. |
Tasting partiesServing a flight of wines from varying regions, varietals, and price points; creating conversation around what we *think* we are tasting based on marketing and persuasion. Such events shed perspective on how the words we use shape the world around us. | | Blending partiesEach table receives beakers of 100% varietals (think 100% cabernet, tempranillo, malbec, teroldego) and has 90-minutes to submit their team blend. Charcuterie boxes are provided for each guest, along with tasting notes. Ideal for group synergy and networking. | | Taste and discoverShowcasing four glasses of the same grape (think mouvedre) from regions across the world. This gives opportunity to learn about the varying tastes that come from the environment. Perfect for conversation and digging in to themes greater than the soil that surrounds us. |
We have traveled; we have worked in various industries; we have shared in life-changing conversations; we have met incredible people. The experiences we walk away from in awe and with new connections are those that involve good food, good wine, and a table filled with good people. We started asking what it is about this combination of food, wine, and people that becomes transformative when there is time to enjoy all three. We discovered when experiences are supported by outrageous hospitality, this becomes the most influential force to building identity, purpose, and community.
In a world where people crave connection (yet it's almost like a relic of the past), they are searching for significance in mounting numbers and social tensions isolate us more and more. The time to pull up a chair has a new sense of importance. The magic that sitting around a table creates has become more evident to us, and Eleven Ventures is built on the ambition that meaningful experiences form around a table filled with pure food, boutique wines, and a desire to build something better than when we all sat down together. |
Get to know us by joining the newsletter, engaging with us on YouTube, or following us on Instagram. Newsletters are weekly and provide newsletter-only content that we want to send to your inbox versus put on a website. If you want to know more about Eleven Ventures, join the newsletter. (The website is intentionally thin.) The @Eleven_Ventures YouTube channel is about experiences, education, and encouraging you through lessons learned from growers and suppliers. Instagram posts give insight into what we're up to, and hopefully one day we'll see you live and in person

Welcome to our table. We're glad you're here. There is always a place for you.
