Last night my husband and I attended a wine tasting that had a really fun theme "Celebrity Wines". It was a blind taste test and everyone was given 3 glasses and 3 pours per round. The bottles were covered in bags and numbered. The host gave a clue for each # and the guests had to determine from the clue the name of the celebrity that was on the bottle or had the winery (you'd be surprised at how many have vineyards). After tasting determine the wine such as Chardonnay or Shiraz and so on. At the end of the 9 tastings, we voted on which 2 wines were the best of the lot. The host then told the price of each bottle. Turns out I chose the 2 most expensive wines. Hmmmmm.
If you google "celebrity wines" you can find a lot of selections for your party or you can go to your favorite wine store and make selections. Each participant paid $15.00 and brought an appetizer to share. Great party. Great idea. Give it a try.
Later, Sandy

My favorite celebrity clue was "flying rubber." It took a minute or two to recall that Fred McMurray owned a vineyard and he is, of course, the famous inventor of "flubber."
My favorite clue was "Larry the Legend".......
Guess who that is?
