Hosting a is a great option for someone who wants to have a get together with friends, but wants to try something different. Less labor intensive than a dinner party, a wine tasting party is both fun and educational for everyone. Here are six sure fire tips to hosting the perfect wine tasting party.
Step 1: Preparation
Wine tastings work best with small groups, usually eight to twelve people. The supplies you need are a corkscrew, one wineglass per person, a wine charm for each glass, paper and pencil for each person, a plastic cup each guest, room temperate water and/or bread to cleanse the palate between tastings.
Step 2: Wine Selection
Here your choices are wide open, depending on your personal taste. For a simple tasting, select 3 bottles each of white and red wines. Another option is to select a theme for the evening, such as Chardonnay wines in the $10 to $20 price range, Provence wine tasting, cabernet wine tasting or even wines less than $8. Find a theme that is a good match for your group and sample wines based on that theme.
