Wine Tasting Party Ideas

Are you looking for wine party ideas? All you need are wine scoring sheets, a selection of white and red wines, glasses and wine favors like charms for the glasses. Your guests will love the fact that they really need to focus on each type of wine and put down their scores for the different aspects of each wine.

It is inevitable that wine tasters begin to mingle and tell each other what they think about the different wines. Remember to include wine tasting sheets which contain a ready-made checklist that guests can tick off. An area for comments and note-taking is also available on the sheet. When you throw a wine tasting it is a wonderful way to add variety and spark to just another regular dinner party.

Instead of dinner you can host a red wine tasting party with different wine and cheese pairings and hide the label of the wine bottles in a decorative bag. Small prizes like wine stoppers can be given if someone guesses the most expensive (or least expensive) types of wine.

Try to limit the types of wine to one kind of wine such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Chardonnay. You can have just white wines or Chardonnays from all over the world represented, including a few cheap ones and maybe a high end bottle. Imagine if the most experienced taster got them mixed up on the wine tasting sheet. When you host a wine party of course the object is for everyone to have good fun. Perhaps it will start a tasting club with resident experts in a particular variety of wine.

Usually a tasting party will evolve plenty of food too. This may seem obvious but you want to match the food to the wines being poured for maximum enjoyment. Use a favorite recipe or try something new like the suggestions from the winery or winemaker on which foods go best with their wine.

When you visit a nice restaurant have you noticed they use a different shape of wine glass for white wine and red wine? Believe it or not the size and shape of the glass can add to the enjoyment of the wines. Some places carry this to an extreme with very expensive crystal glasses specially designed for a particular wine but that is not necessary for general enjoyment.
