Wine tasting certificate
Make the sheets View: A4 · Letter
The certificate is one landscape page with a thin accent border: Wine of the night across the top in the display type, a numbered ring with a line beside it for the winning wine, the event's name and date, and Voted by the table at with a line for the place. It is awarded to a bottle, not a person, which suits an evening among friends where nobody wants to be ranked. Add it from the row of extra sheets, and it takes the event name and date you typed, so it matches the guest sheets and the host sheet. It suits a birthday, an anniversary, a club's annual tasting, or any evening where a single winning bottle deserves a frame. Print it on heavier stock if you have it, and it can stand against the bottle for the photo.
Play the evening as usual with Verdetto, stars and guesses for every glass, and keep the certificate face down with the host sheet. After the last glass, count the filled rings for each wine on the scoreboard or ask for a show of hands, reveal the winner and write its glass number and name on the certificate in front of everyone. A good pen and a slow hand make the moment. Print one, or a few if you want to give one to the person who brought the winning bottle. It is a one-minute addition that tends to end up on a fridge. If the vote is tied, the host decides, as the rules page says. Celebrate with a full glass of water, and remember that it is the wine that won, not whoever drank most of it.
Questions
What do you put on a wine tasting certificate?
The winning wine, the glass it was poured in, the name of the evening and the date, and who voted for it. A certificate for the bottle rather than a person keeps the evening friendly.
Who chooses the wine of the night?
The table. Count the favourites on the host sheet, or take a show of hands after the reveal, and write the winner in once the bottles are uncovered.
