This is a fun team event that provides a great lead-in
to a celebratory evening meal. An ideal ending to a team
meeting, away day or conference event.
The wine tasting starts with a
light-hearted introduction to the art of wine tasting...in
other words spit or swallow! We
quickly move onto the wine tasting itself with participants
working in small teams - 3, 4 or 5 per team is ideal – trying
each wine in turn.
The format of the wine-tasting
is that of a typical "pub-quiz" with
each group having a limited time to taste and decide upon
their answers for each wine. There are typically four rounds
- reds, quickfire wine quiz questions, whites, and match the price
with the wine. We select good quality wines representing
major grape varieties and wine producing regions from around the world.
All wines tasted are readily available from good wine merchants
so if you have a particular favourite you'll be able to
easily get hold a case or two! We maintain the pace to keep up the
fun - the laughter and noise as the tasting progresses
reflects this!
At the end of the wine tasting, we quickly score up and award
prizes to the top-scoring teams - this could involve participants
selecting a favourite wine from all those tasted.
The wine tasting typically lasts about an hour and a half.
All wines are provided, and the format we use is to allow
all guests to choose how much (or how little) they want
of each wine.
The wine tasting event is ideal to follow one of our other
team building events. How about a Treasure Hunt followed
by a Wine Tasting Event? We can put out some of the wine
clues on the Treasure Hunt. The team that collects the
most clue cards will be well placed when we move on to
the wine tasting!
