Teambuilding & kickoff
The blind tasting game – blind tasting as team building!
Is it possible to recognize a wine blindly without ever having tasted it before? The Blind Tasting Game is a competitive and cooperative team building game where two or more teams must pair 6 bottles with 6 glasses under the same time pressure as for competitive sommeliers. To help, everyone gets a joint overview of the nature of the wines, where they come from and how to think in order to succeed. Each team also gets two lifelines they can use if they get stuck. Prepare for lively discussions, nail-biting excitement and a real motivational boost when you and your colleagues succeed in the impossible! Book a team building game that challenges all the senses!

Through comparative tasting, you learn to find your own favorite style and what to consider when choosing Champagne yourself." Time required approx. 2–2.5 hours.
Lectures
Our lectures
are much appreciated by our guests and we aim in an engaging and entertaining way, to explain what your business can learn from the wine industry. Why not lighten the afternoon mood after a long day of meetings with a combined lecture and tasting? A few examples below:
Wine and sustainability
What can your business learn from the wine industry with concerns to sustainability in the entire production and delivery chain? Few industries are so directly and noticeably affected by climate change as the wine industry is. They have been busy bees but there is still much to be done. Find out how an industry turned a downward spiral towards sustainability over just two decades and why sustainable and organic is not necessarily the same thing.
Wine as an investment
Why do an increasing amount of people choose to invest their money in wine? Join us for an exciting journey in SWAG – aka Silver, Wine, Art and Gold – and its history. How does speculation in wines affect consumers at large and how does one speculate in wine anyway? An entertaining and informative lecture on a subject few know anything about can be the perfect end to a conference on, for example, finance and insurance.
What the wine industry can teach you about CSR
Corporate Social Responsibility – or CSR for short – is a much discussed and very relevant topic today and terms such as “CoC” (Codes of Conduct) are now mainstream terminology within most industries. For the wine industry work with CSR is very important. We discuss how the wine industry handles CSR issues and tries to make sure every step of the production and sales chain is correct. How can customers be sure that the product has been produced in a socially responsible way?
