Which order should you serve wines in at a wine tasting?

At a wine tasting, it’s important to serve drinks in the right order. If you’re serving a mix of wines at your wine tasting, it’s best to serve white wines before reds and progress from lighter to heavier flavors. This means pouring light body before full body wines, and dry wines before sweeter ones, so that guests can experience the full flavors of each bottle.

What should I serve wine in at a wine tasting?

Making sure you have the right glassware is essential when organizing your wine tasting. Serve wine in glasses with a rounded bowl and tapered sides to allow the wine to be swirled around and aerate without spilling. You may also choose to rinse glasses between wines or separate out glasses for different types of wine — for example, one glass for whites and another for reds. Make sure to have plenty of tumblers on hand to serve water throughout the tasting.

How many wines do you need for a wine tasting?

Generally speaking, it’s advised to serve between 6-8 wines per tasting — and servings are typically around 2 fluid ounces, or 60ml. You may also choose to serve wines in pairs, so guests can compare and contrast the flavor profile of each wine.

4 tips on how to host a wine tasting party

Here are four tips from our event experts on how to make your wine tasting stand out.

#1. Choose a theme

Whether you’re sampling from a specific region — such as the Loire Valley, or Tuscany — or you decide to sip orange wine from local winemakers, make sure to decide on a theme for your wine tasting to intrigue your guests.

#2. Add intrigue

Intrigue even the most seasoned wine connoisseurs by setting a clear objective for your tasting. Maybe guests will get to try brand-new bottles from esteemed winemakers, rare aged wines, or chef-approved food pairings.
