Different. Memorable. Easy.
Birthdays are worth celebrating with something special. Something memorable and a little bit different. But let’s face it. Not everyone fancies spending an hour trying to figure out how to get break free from a prison-themed escape room. Or ducking to avoid axes flying through the air. That’s why a birthday wine tasting from the comfort of home is perfect.
With Wine Night In, the sommelier comes to you for an at-home wine tasting. It’s a fun, relaxed, and social atmosphere. Just like all birthdays’ should be! You won’t feel like you’re at a lecture or being quizzed. And there’s no need to pretend you can smell things you can’t. Our whole thing at Wine Night In is making wine tasting accessible and enjoyable. No snobbishness or stuffiness allowed!
Our standard wine tasting package includes six bottles. We tailor that selection to you and your birthday party. And we work with our incredible partners like The Horsham Cellar to find bottles of wine you won’t be able to find in the supermarket. We also team up with food suppliers like LazeeGraze for scrumptious spreads to accompany your birthday wine tasting.
Not only that, but Wine Night In won’t break the bank. We start at just £30 per person or £240 for a birthday party of eight people. That includes all the wine! And unlike some other doorstop sommelier services, we don’t charge for glassware or travel costs. It’s all included in the price.
Our birthday wine tasting package is our most popular one. You can check out our reviews from other birthday bookings. We’ve also got our gallery page where you can see photos and videos of other evenings. And there’s a video below with what you can expect at a Wine Night In. Any questions, just reach out. We’re here to help you plan the perfect birthday wine tasting!
Hosting a wine tasting birthday party.
Build an incredible wine list 🍇
The most obvious thing you’ll need for a wine tasting birthday party is… Wine! We usually recommend three white and three red but can change that to what you want. At Wine Night In, we also like to pick wines you won’t find in your supermarket. There are so many fantastic wines from small, family-run vineyards that deserve more attention.
Get wine tasting placemats and glassware 🍷
If you’re going to host a wine tasting birthday party, you’ll need placemats and glassware. Like, a lot of glasses! Luckily, with Wine Night In that’s all included in the price of the package. We bring all the wine glasses you’ll need and provide wine tasting placemats too. These are designed so that you can keep track of what you’re tasting and see the different colors clearly.
Start the wine tasting! 😛
And here we go! The most important thing for a fun birthday wine tasting is that it doesn’t feel like a lesson or a quiz. You shouldn’t feel like you’re being lectured at or like you have to come up with the right answers. That’s not a fun birthday! It’s why at Wine Night In, we like to think of our sommeliers like wine DJs. No set agenda. Mixing together wine tasting activities, games, tips and tricks to suit the evening.
Actually enjoy the wine 🥳
The most important part of a birthday wine tasting is that you actually get to enjoy the wine. This may sound obvious but it’s something that so many sommeliers miss. Often, wine tasting can feel like putting on airs. Swirling and spitting and nodding in agreement as someone mentions notes you don’t even understand. That’s not what you want for a wine tasting birthday party! And it’s why our main focus for Wine Night In is you enjoy and learn about the wine you love in a fun and unpretentious scenario.
Frequently asked questions about birthday wine tasting.
How much does a birthday wine tasting cost?
You can do a DIY birthday wine tasting for the cost of the wine. But a Wine Night In starts from £30 per person or £240 for a group of eight guests. That includes at least £100 worth of wine and two hours with a professional sommelier. And it includes all the glassware and materials like placemats. So, not a bad deal!
What’s included in a birthday wine tasting party?
At least two hours of wine tasting activities, games, tips and tricks. At least six bottles of wine which we choose based on your preferences. And we try to get bottles you won’t find in the supermarket so you can discover a few new favourites. If you’re planning a larger birthday party, we can add extra wine and time as well as food options if you fancy it. We can even sort and source a birthday cake from one of our partners to make your life easier!
Is this suitable for beginners?
A Wine Night In is absolutely suitable for beginners. We make the wine tasting experience it fun and easy to follow. There’s no jargon. No lectures. No quizzes and no putting anyone on the spot. Yes, you’ll pick up a few wine tips along the way. But it’s mostly it’s about enjoying good company and good wine.
Can we book it as a surprise?
If you’re planning your wine tasting as a surprise birthday party, that’s great! Just let us know so we can keep it discreet. We’ve helped plan plenty of surprise birthdays and gifts. Or if you’d prefer, you can buy a wine tasting voucher and let the lucky person sort the rest.
