Participate in Mystery Wine Blind Tasting Game in Limassol
What we taste is profoundly influenced by what we see. Similarly, our perception of aroma and flavor are also affected by both the hue and the intensity of the color of the food and drink we consume. Change the color of wine and people’s expectations can be radically altered. Sometimes even experts can be fooled into thinking that they can smell the right wine aromas when given to taste out of a dark colored glass!
In Short:
- In this activity, individuals are presented with a glass of wine of unknown origin.
- They will then proceed to sample four other wines, one of which is identical to the mystery wine.
- Using their senses and acquired knowledge, participants must discern which of the four wines is the same as the initial mystery wine.
The game
In the Mystery Wine Blind Tasting Game, participants are presented with a glass of wine that they are unaware of its identity. They are subsequently provided with four other wines to taste. During the tasting I will be sharing useful insights and anecdotes about each wine with regards to it's origin and style. Participants use their senses of sight, smell, and taste to analyze the wines. They might take note of the wine's color, viscosity, and clarity. They'll also focus on the aroma, noting the various scents like fruits, spices, and earthy tones. Finally, they taste the wines, paying attention to the flavors, acidity, tannins, and overall balance.
Objective
Participants are tasked with using their sensory skills and knowledge to identify which of the four wines matches the profile of the wine in the mystery glass. They might discuss their observations with others, share opinions, and make educated guesses.
This game encourages participants to refine their palate, learn about different grape varieties, regions, and winemaking techniques, and have fun while doing so. It's a great way to develop tasting skills and enjoy the complexities of wine.
