Party Prep!

We don’t have to tell you that good hosts attend to the smallest details before their guests arrive. But wine tastings require their own special touch. Good lighting and a scent-free environment help ensure the wine is center stage and your party is a success. Cover all your bases by reviewing our Tasting 411 checklist!

Stemware should also be on your planning radar. With the exception of bubbly, you don’t need a different glass for each type of wine, but stemware does matter. To find out why and get suggestions on how to overcome your stemware anxiety, review our Stemware Basics guide.
