No better example than the event last Tuesday, which turned wine tasting and a scavenger hunt on their heads! This was not just any sip "more wine and skip from wine bar to wine bar" event. We started with a wonderful, friendly, and sociable place that agreed to remain open just for E&A (it's good to have friends who sell great wine). Start with an unusual glass of Hungarian sparkling wine and hors d'oevures just wake up our palates and get a chance to mingle with our friends (and meet some new ones). Then the teams were created: men had to find two ladies to discover the wine. Already, men and women alike were smiling and laughing.
Next were 5 different wines (all poured into identical bottles. Each person got a small pour and each team a sheet of paper. Located around the room were a number of descriptor cards with clues attached to a bottle of wine. Was the clue helpful to what you tasted? Was it trying to deceive you? The job of each team: match what you taste in the glass to the bottle of wine. Prizes for even those who could answer one correctly!
Every team went at their own pace but there seemed to be more teamwork happening among all of the teams as each wine had its own unusual characteristics. Even after all of the name were revealed, people were still excited, except all they wanted was to purchase some wine and get some dinner! We all left having had a wonderful time and looking forward to the great Mediterranean place next store. Events And Adventures San Francisco
