Wine Games for a Wine Tasting Party

Wine tasting parties are becoming more and more common these days as a great way for friends to get together, have fun and learn about wines. Usually each guest will bring a different bottle of wine to the party. Why not be the talk of the party and put your bottle of wine in a wooden contraption called a bottle puzzle? Start the wine tasting party off to figuring out how to get the bottle of wine out of the puzzle. Conversation and wine will flow, but only if you solve the puzzle!

Don't Break the Bottle Puzzle

If you’re planning on hosting a wine tasting party, you’ll need a theme. Select a varietal from a specific region or regions then invite guests to bring California Whites, California Reds, Italian Reds, European Reds, etc.

An example of a wine trivia question from this game is:

Question
When the cork is presented to you in a restaurant, you should:

  • Look at it and touch it
  • Bite it to determine the cork’s subtle flavors
  • Smell it

Answer
Look at it and touch it

You should do this to make sure that the cork is moist and not crumbly which could indicate improper storage and possible spoilage. If you choose to smell it, you will most likely only smell a wine scented cork unless there is a severe defect.
