A way to Host a wine Party.

Looking to have a bit of fun with mates while sharing some wine? You need to consider hosting a wine tasting party. Famous Burgundy Reds. It is a truly neat way to share your wine tops and to get introduced to a selection of new and engaging wines.

You don?t need plenty of guests to have a great party.

What I have found works best is to have about 4 to 12 folk, and definitely include yourself as one of the registered guests.

Pick a fun theme, and remember the theme also determines what wines will be poured. I would suggest being awfully creative, the chances are unlimited. If you tell your local wine merchant your theme, they could be a fine source of help with wine and theme matching.

Have you heard the old chestnut "First the wine, then your menu"? If you had a theme for your party and your wines followed that theme, you may need to carry it thru with whatever food you serve.

While you should provide foods that enhance the wines provided, the food should not the spine of the party. Don not forget to have tons of bottled room temperature water and optional spit buckets available.

When all of the tasting is done, you may wish to have lots of coffee and desserts. This is also a fab time to damage out one of your favourite pudding wines.

As your love and awareness of wine grows, it is inescapable that you may wish to share your revelations with pals and family. Hosting a wine tasting party is a way to do that.

To make it more engaging, we tasted two wines from Rutherford, ( valley floor ) 2 from Stags Leap, ( east hills ) and 2 from Mount Veeder ( west hills ). Desist from pouring full glasses till each wine has been tasted to circumvent the cloud of inebriation on the senses. Guarantee this does not interfere or clash with the wine tasting. Try bread or crackers and a mild, white cheddar or brie. This will create and continuing reference point and point of view as your preferences develop. This will stop any one from swirling the wine on your tablecloth or carpeting.

Step one in the tasting process is to look at the wine and take note of the color, clearness, and transparency of the wine. Older mixes could be predicted to have a little sediment.
