Wine Appreciation
Feel your knowledge of wine could do with extending from merely red and white? Want to learn how to accurately label your favourite vintage earthy, floral or robust?! Well here’s your chance as Out Of The Office bring you this popular and fun wine tasting event.
Perfect as a conference energiser or a stand-alone activity, this
fantastic and interesting event will have you and your colleagues sampling and grading
a whole range of different wines, all under the direction of our wine
expert who will tutor and guide you throughout. This event can be as fun or team-building
as you wish and guarantees to give you and your colleagues something to
take away and use in the future.
And you thought restaurant price lists
were the only guide you had!
The Master-Class
Experts At Hand
Your event will start with an introduction from our wine expert, who
will teach you and your colleagues the official method of wine
appreciation and how to fine tune your sniffing and tasting abilities!
Your practical lesson will include distinguishing between different
oaks, grapes and ages of wines and also a brief overview of different
wines from around the world.
Blind Testing
Now that you and your colleagues are certified experts in the field(!)
you will be split into teams and given the chance to sample a selection
of unmarked wines and make notes on what you believe you are sampling!
Points will be accrued for accuracy in description, age, grape and
locality.
The Winners
You and your team’s analyses will be marked by our expert, who besides your raw score, will also take into account your team’s flair and extravagance in their tasting – Jilly Goolden impressions at the ready! The winning team will then be presented with prizes and medals to celebrate their victory.
