5 Tasting Theme Ideas for your Traveling Vineyard Tasting Experience

1)      Wine and chocolate pairing

White, milk, dark, spicy chili chocolate, hazelnut, caramel, orange chocolate…I bet you never realized there were so many types of chocolates you could try out with your wines!

2)      Wine and Girl Scout Cookie pairing

We’ll try a Thin Mint with a nice Syrah and a Trefoil with a buttery Chardonnay and a Tagalong with a Pinot Noir… and we’ll just keep trying them all night long!

3)      Couples tasting

Picture this: you’re at a fancy restaurant with your loved one and you’re discussing splitting a bottle of wine. But you’re not sure if your tastebuds actually agree on the bold red or the crisp white. With a couples tasting, we can put together a scorecard to find the wine varietal that brings you both together. Don’t puzzle over the wine list ever again!

4)      Gift tasting (Stock the Cellar!)

Whether its a bridal shower, a birthday party, or just someone you love, you can throw them a “stock the cellar” party! Each guest can pitch in for a bottle or two, and before you know it, your guest of honor will have a case of wine to stock their cellar or fill their rack!

5)      Corporate hospitality

Got a teambuilding event or client hospitality evening on the horizon? A wine tasting is a super-fun way to pass the time, share some laughs, and get to know your guests. You can even ask your wine guide to skip the marketing part by pre-ordering a case of a variety of wines (or personalized labels with your business card) and let your guests leave with a party favor!
