No one will want to miss that event.

Law firms, investment banks, marketing firms, financial firms, sports agents and advertising agencies are a few of the organizations for which wine tastings can be an innovative marketing and educational tool.

Imagine a wine tasting with first class wines led by a person with a passion for wine who loves to explain wine and communicate that enthusiasm to others. A tasting can be structured as a sit-down event in which enjoyment and education go hand-in-hand, or as a stand-up walk-around event that lends itself to more casual interaction.

TEAM BUILDING:

You just bought a winery….now what?

If you’re looking for convention entertainment ideas, you will love this upbeat presentation!

This interactive session gets the audience thinking about not only the taste, but also the packaging and presentation of wine.

TASTE: Each team tastes three styles of wines and selects their flagship wine for a product launch.
PRICE: Will it be priced as an everyday wine or a super premium? What’s the rationale?
NAME: Then dream up a memorable name. Inspiration could come from anywhere and for more laughs could even reflect some quirky aspect of the client’s product/service, a person in the company, or their competition. It’s no holds barred.
DESIGN: Then teams design an attention-getting, colorful wine label that could mean the difference between someone reaching for your bottle on the shelf or passing it by.
DREAM: Teams launch their new wine with a big idea, and for once there are no budget constraints.
PITCH: Each team presents their ideas about the wine they are going to launch in the marketplace.
VOTE: Everyone in the audience votes for their favorite the way people “vote” at wine festivals in Europe – by stomping their feet, pounding their fists on the table or twirling their napkins in the air!
