The Second Glass is run by Boston Young Entrepreneurs superstars Morgan First and Tyler Balliet. They are awesome.
Wine Riot is their marquee event and it is especially awesome. Think big circular room filled with all sorts of great wine that you can try out and an entire room full of cool, interesting people who also happen to be knowledgeable about wine.
Bottom line: this event is amazing and it showed at their April edition, which was a 100% sellout.
This time around it’s even better because 90 + Cellars, a local Boston winery that’s pretty cool in its own right, is sponsoring the Wine Riot Lounge and will be pouring a set of Wine Riot label wines which will blow your mind.
If I tried to highlight everything at Wine Riot, this blog would turn into a novella, but suffice it to say there will be a DJ, Taza chocolate, a photo booth, temporary (and probably real) tattoos, a roving wine intelligence unit and a lot more. You should go.

PS. The Second Glass has a brand new site launched in time for Wine Riot. The new site (and mobile site, which is way more convenient in the moment) makes it easy to remember the wines you like or dislike so you can buy/avoid them the next time you’re at the liquor store. It’s pretty cool, check it out.
Devin! You are too sweet — I guess someone is excited for Wine Riot
