  • Blind Wine Tasting
    Mission Hill Family Estate
    Sunday, May 2, 2010 at 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

    A uniquely fun way to learn about wine! So subjective is the wine tasting process that only by blind tasting can a true assessment of a wine's style and quality be made. A blind tasting is a form of wine tasting in which the taster (you) attempts to evaluate and/or identify wines without knowing their identity. In this session our Sommelier will guide you on an exploration of wine aromas and flavours and then challenge you to put your newfound skills to the test. Once you have the experience of blind tasting your way through a flight of five wines, we will raise the stakes: the final challenge will involve a "double-blind" tasting, in which you will be unable to see even the colour of the wine. Beginners often make the best blind tasters! A prize will be awarded to the guest with the most accurate results.
