So you are having a party at home and the theme is wine. You want to make a good selection of
wines that will cater to everyone’s taste but are confused? Look no further. Here are 5 simple tips
to keep in mind that ensure a set of delighted guests, all high on their love for wine!
Set a budget
It’s important to have a budget otherwise you could easily get carried away with your wine
selection. Look for simple, tasty wines that are both readily available and fit your budget.
Cater to a wide taste
Some people only drink white wine and some only drink red wine. Some people prefer fruity
over dry wines. So it's important to have one of each. At the same time, it’s important to
remember that you can’t cater to each and every individual taste. So keep the selection simple
yet enjoyable.
Sample it
Whatever wine you choose for a party, sample it before you buy it in bulk. As the host, you must
have enough knowledge about the wine you are serving. It also makes for a good conversation
starter with your guests.
Be selective about your precious wines
Not everyone can appreciate every wine. A novice may not appreciate an aged Pinot Noir with
gamey or leatherly aromas; or an aged petroly Reisling. Keep these precious wines for a selective
set of guests who know such wines and have the palate for it. Serve easy drinking and simple
wines at big parties.
Who doesn’t like a sale!

2. Shop around for sales that offer good wines at good discounts. Don’t compromise on the quality
of wines though; always balance the trade off.
And Lastly,
Now all there's left to do is pour away and enjoy your weekend! Happy Wine-ing!
