So, you have the task of organising a hens party for your favourite bride-to-be. You want it to be memorable, match her personality and style, and for everyone to have a great time.
Easy, right?
Not always.
Looking to your hen’s interests could be the key. Does your fun-loving hen have a taste for a glass of wine every now and then? She could be just starting out in the world of wine, wanting to know more; or dragging you to all of the wineries in town.
If this sounds familiar; then your answer could be to organise a wine tasting in the comfort of your own home!

What is an At-Home Wine Tasting?
A wine tasting covers activities and drinks all in one. It's an opportunity to not only try different types of wine, but to also learn more about each drop (the different regions, flavours, aromas). It shouldn't be pretentious and stuffy (that wouldn't be very hensy now, would it?!), and it should match the tastes of the hen and her friends.
Combined with delicious food pairings, it's a wonderful way to enjoy a variety of wines with your favourite people.

EXAMPLE TASTING THEME IDEAS:

- A tour of Rosé from home and away
- A sweet and stylish tasting for the bride that is sweet as

What You Need to Host an In-Person Wine Tasting
A BOTTLE OF EACH WINE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TRY
This could be a random selection of new wines, or wines based on a common theme (e.g. white wines, red wines, bottles from a particular wine region, lighter wines, and so on). Make this decision based on your guest of honour's tastes.
DRINK-WARE
Enough wine glasses for everyone attending the event.
FOOD PAIRING SUGGESTIONS
We suggest either printing off and framing a large food and wine pairings poster, or printing off smaller copies for guests to view at their leisure.
FOOD
A delicious spread of food (to match your pairing suggestions). This may include cheese, crackers, fruits and cold meats.
TASTING NOTES
These could just be written on a plain piece of paper, or an actual tasting form that can be used to highlight the pros and cons of each bottle.
Different Ways to Host a Home Tasting
CELLAR PARTY
For a bridal shower with a difference, a cellar party where guests' each bring a bottle of wine to kick start the newly married couple's collection could be a winner. Pair this with a wine tasting experience and you could have the perfect event!
BLIND WINE TASTING PARTY
For the group who want to really test their senses, why not host a blind tasting? A great way to find your perfect match in a beverage, as there are no pre-conceived opinions of the wine before it's actually experienced. No labels, no back story, nothing! It's simply you and your taste buds, my friend.
MAKE IT A GAME
Set out a variety of different wines, labels covered. In front of each bottle, place a small card that gives an overview of the taste (and perhaps some other hints, if needed).
Now for the 'tasting with a twist'. Each guest is given a chance to guess what the hidden wine selections are. They can read the brief descriptions, try it, and make notes. They just can't look at the label. Once everyone has written down their thoughts, reveal the bottles! Those with the most correct guesses are awarded a prize. But the real prize here? Getting to finish the delicious wines as a group.
Handy Tip:
If you think this game will be too hard for your group, you can provide the names of each wine and they simply have to match them to the bottles (rather than guessing everything themselves).
BRING IN A PROFESSIONAL
Wine educators have a knack for creating a fun and educational experience. A good wine presenter should also be able to match the tasting to meet your hen's wine preferences, whilst being entertaining for all of her guests.
