What to wear for a wine tasting


Wine tastings are fairly classy affairs, so this makes your favourite jeans a no-no. I recommend a nice sundress, or a pair of smart trousers with a top instead. When dressing for a wine tasting my rule of thumb is to look casual but polished and sophisticated.

Are you a spiller? If you’re as clumsy as me, then it’s probably best to wear a dark colour up top: lighter colours will showcase every single red wine stain! This tea dress is the perfect solution. Also remember to wear flat shoes, or shoes you feel comfortable in: most wine tasting events take place stood up, so you don’t want to spend all day worrying about your feet.

Final tip: Don’t forget to carry a pocket mirror and a mint or even pocket toothbrush: noone wants to be smiling their biggest red wine smile all night!
