Wine Blending Workshops

Artiste has been providing organizations, corporations, families and friends structured Blending Workshops since 2006, and we have shared the art of blending experience with thousands of wine lovers. Whether your group is 6 or 30 we can create a special experience that your guests will be sure to remember.

 

 

The typical workshop begins with tasting a few current Artiste wines as we discuss the history and the reasons why winemakers blend wines.  After guests sample barrel samples of three different varietals they will begin the blending process by creating several “trial" blends on their own, and then create their own special blend, indvividually or as a team.  Optionally, we can turn your group experience into a competition and have a wine judging at the end to award 1st, 2nd and 3rd places for some fun team building.

We accept reservations for a minimum of 6 people to 30 max.  Workshop timeframe is about 60-90 minutes.  Studio Blending Workshops include our Artiste Blending Instructor, a wine tasting of current list, the blending wines and tools, all in a private setting.

Your guests will get their creative juices flowing after a few glasses of wine so why not add a few easels for painting?!  Groups may paint their wine labels collectively, or just enjoy painting individually after the blending workshop for an additional $10 per person.
