Whose Wine Is It Anyway?
In turbulent, stressful times we realize teams are often expected to sacrifice. Just to be clear, this is not one of those times. Prepare your palettes for something refreshingly different: a team building event fueled by wine! Whose Wine is It Anyway is a fun and delicious collaborative program in a relaxed, informal setting. This unique event combines team challenges, lots of interaction, and plenty of fun. Your group will become wine experts because they have to – everyone’s success depends on it!
Our Trade-off icebreaker gets everyone up on their feet, laughing, meeting other people and collecting wine expertise to share with their own wine team. Now each team presents its particular wine to the rest of the group for a tasting. They must also offer up helpful hints for remembering their wine. After each wine has been tasted it’s time for the ultimate blind taste-test. How well did you explain your Pinot Noir? Can your team agree on the differences between the Merlot and the Cabernet? It’s tricky and fun, and requires teams to build consensus when they choose their final answers.
This activity is perfect before or after dinner. If you’re looking for a creative alternative to another standard-issue cocktail hour, here’s your solution. Uncork your team’s potential!
