Ready to turn your next gathering into an unforgettable wine tasting—without the stress or the snobbery? In this episode Nick Elliott walks you through everything you need to know to host a fun, approachable, and memorable wine tasting at home or in the office. Whether you're planning a cozy night with friends, a team-building event, or a client appreciation party, Nick shares how to:

 

  • Choose a theme your guests will love (no wine degree required)
  • Set the mood with simple, stylish touches
  • Pair wines with foods that actually make sense (and taste amazing)
  • Ask the right questions to guide—not lecture—your guests
  • Avoid common hosting mistakes (and keep it lighthearted)
  • Make it interactive with fun ideas like blind tastings and poetic tasting notes
Plus, learn how to book a virtual or in-person tasting experience with Nick—customized for your occasion, your guests, and your budget.
