Gentlemen of /v/,

Allow me to share the finer details of a "Wine Dipping Party"

1. The Guest List: Only invite gentlemen whom share your taste for the finer wines. If they insist on dipping champagne tell them to kindly exit your presence.

2. To make your event a bit more challenging, offer a “blind dipping” experience. In this case, you still provide your guests with their individual tasting cards. However, you pour each wine without identifying the label (cover bottles with foil or a brown bag and mark with a number prior to serving), allowing them to incorporate all of their senses to identify the respective wines based on the labels’ descriptions. The guest that is able to identify the most wines correctly wins a prized bottle of wine or perhaps a book on the art of wine dipping.

3. Decorations for a wine tasting party can range from a white table cloth and candles to Old World, Tuscan faux paintings and vintage bottles scattered throughout your “dipping room.” In either case, remember to keep the atmosphere light and engaging. You may consider starting the evening with a bit of wine trivia, just to get the conversation rolling.
