Guess the wine party

Great fun -
The point to this evening is to see how well we know our wine.
Each guest will bring a bottle of wine or two, the host will nominate which guest will bring what wine. choose different countries and price range to ensure there will be a variety of wine bottles. As your guests arrive, wrap the bottles up in the same paper. Each guest will be given a questionaire, click here for ideas. You can change the questions to suit yourself. Then, after tasting, ask the guests to fill out the questionaire and see the results you may find them quite amusing. A prize can be awarded to the person who guessed the correct country, grape, price - depending on the questionaire. A good idea to serve nibbles while comsuming wine, this will also change the taste of the wine.

In November, the race is on to obtain the youngest bottle of red wine from france and bring it back to the UK. Create a party around this event. This fine young wine can be obtained easily from supermarkets and off licences. It is easy to make this into a french theme evening.
Dress up in stripy t-shirts,dark trousers and a beret. Then decorate your room with red, white and blue; strings of onions and garlic to give it a bistro look - or bring your garden furniture inside for an al fresco feel. You can serve pate and french bread, croissants, various cheeses and canapes.
