About:
Blind Wine taps into the growing popularity of wine tasting gatherings at home. Unlike other wine tasting party kits, Blind Wine is presented in a game format where a winner is declared. Each player brings a bottle of wine based on criteria set by the host (type, region, year, and price range). The host places each bottle in a Blind Wine bag to prevent anyone from knowing which wine is theirs. Using the Blind Wine scorecards (and the Blind Wine educational tips, if needed), guests rate the wine in four key categories and determine the total points for each wine. The player that brought the highest rated wine is declared the winner and awarded the 'coveted' gold medal.
The Blind Wine game includes everything a first-time or seasoned wine tasting host needs: Step-by-step instructions, suggestions booklet, Blind Wine bags for disguising the wine bottles, wine glass labels, invitations, score cards, thank-you cards, pencils, and a 1st place Blind Wine medal for the winner.
