Im 100 GRAMM Vino treffen sich Menschen zum Schachspiel. Die Atmosphäre ist locker und richtet sich an alle, die ohne den Druck eines Vereins spielen wollen. Wer Anfänger ist oder nur gelegentlich spielt, findet hier Anschluss. Ein Gastgeber hilft dabei, passende Gegner zu finden. Die Bretter werden vor Ort gestellt, eigene Exemplare sind aber willkommen. Der Abend ist offen gestaltet. Es gibt keine Anmeldung und keine Mitgliedschaft. Ein Getränk oder Snack vor Ort unterstützt den Erhalt des Formats.
