    1. Identify your audience

One of the first things you have to do when planning an event is to determine who the people on your guest list are. Their age, personality types and other relevant characteristics are important things to note as you do not want to end up serving alcoholic wine to a gathering of pastors. So knowing your audience will help you determine whether to go for alcoholic or non-alcoholic wine. 

    2. Consider Your event duration

You should have a time frame for how long you expect the event to last. You do not want to run out of wine right in the middle of a pumping party, and neither do you want to waste resources by over-buying more than what was needed for the event. The rule is the longer the party, the more wine you’ll need. Keep this in mind as you draw up your event plan.

     3. Know the capacity of the wine bottle you’re going for

In other words, how many cups are in the bottle of wine you’re thinking of buying or ordering? How many people can a bottle serve? Sometimes, this information is indicated on the wine bottles. This will help you make accurate calculations of how many bottles you’ll be needing compared to how many guests you’re expecting.

      4. Split your choice

Based on the kind of guests you’re expecting, you can split your wine choice into different types; red wine, white wine, alcoholic, non-alcoholic wine and so on. This variety would add spice to your event and give your guests a range of options. 

      5. Stick to your budget 

You don’t have to put pressure on yourself to impress anybody. If your guests cared about you enough to grace your event, they are probably not there to figure out if you bought the most expensive wines for your party. So ensure you do not go overboard in your spending in trying to select the bottles of wines for your event. 

      6. Be confident and enjoy your party

Whether you are the star of the occasion or a co-planner of the event, make sure you are also a partaker of all the hard work you have put into making sure the party is a success. And whether there are any hitches or challenges in the course of the party, don’t beat yourself over it. With enough wine to go around, the party will continue. 

Now that you’ve learned how to make your wine choice for any event or occasion, you are well on your way to wrapping up the year in grand style. In making your wine choice, you don’t have to look too far. Jambitts offers you a variety of exclusive wine options to choose from.

Many people are constantly faced with the battle of knowing what to buy for their friends, family and even colleagues on special occasions or during the festive period. As the festive period approaches, the fear of not knowing what gift is best to go for when celebrating with loved ones is increasing. In this post, we’ll be looking at some reasons why wine is the best gift you can give. 

 

5 Reasons Why Wine is The Best Gift

 

  1. Wine is not selective of any event

 

There are certain seasons or celebrations that require specific gifts or items but wine transcends all of that. Wine is always relevant and has a variety of collections to suit whatever occasion is being celebrated. 

 

  1. Wine is easy to wrap

 

For people who like ease, wine is the best gift to go for. All you have to do is take off the price tag, get a gift bag or wine gift bag and place your bottle of wine inside it. That’s it, you’re good to go! 

 

  1. Wine lightens up the atmosphere

 

The phrase, “drink wine and forget your sorrows” never goes out of style. When people drink wine, they are generally in a happier and more relaxed mood. When you serve wine at your event or buy it as a gift, it improves the atmosphere of the environment and makes it a more enjoyable occasion. 

 

  1. It is affordable

 

Wine comes in different sizes, tastes, types and prices. You do not have to break the bank to get the perfect wine gift for your celebrant. Whether you’re looking to buy alcoholic or non-alcoholic wine, there is always a price range that suits your budget. 

 

  1. It is durable

 

As the saying goes, “ageing like fine wine”, the older it gets, the better it becomes. Wine is not a perishable item that has to be taken right away. Wine can be kept for a long period of time. So if you buy a wine gift for your friends or family, they are not under any pressure to drink that bottle of wine immediately. 

 

So there you have it! You can agree that wine is definitely a good gift idea if you’re still at a loss for what to present at that wedding, birthday party or special family event. If you’re thinking of where to get the best wine, Jambitts has got you covered. We are a wine importation and distribution company providing you with a variety of wines for you to make your choice.

Wine is loved for the unique taste it offers as well as the calming and sometimes intoxicating effect it has on consumers. It has become a regular feature at special occasions, events ranging from social to corporate and even in between meals. It has also become a go-to item when trying to sourdough for a gift to buy for friends, family, neighbours and colleagues regardless of the occasion. 

 

Wine has been in existence for thousands of years having various symbolic meanings and references in history. Its relevance even in historic religious books and settings has made it a drink that has made a major impact on society for centuries. A prosperous wine market in any society equalled an economically advanced one. It has also been used in orthodox churches in the Eucharistic system to depict the blood of Christ. So who first invented the concept of wine? 

Who Was The First Person To Discover Wine? 

 

Historical records do not provide an exact person or place to be the discoverer of wine. However, there are certain ancient cities which are believed to be the earliest points of discovery of wine. The ancient cities of Georgia, Paphos and ancient China, Sicily and Armenia are some of these cities. 

 

There were also fables which try to explain how wine was discovered. Although there is no concrete proof that these tales are true. Dionysus also known as Bacchus was referred to as the Greek god of wine. He earned his title after discovering viticulture that is, the making of wine at Mount Nysa, an ancient Greek site. He then proceeded to teach what he had learned to his people spreading the ancient concept behind wine production. Dionysus was worshipped by the ancient Greeks and Romans.  

 

There are also speculations that wine was discovered by accident. It is believed that the early humans plucked sugary flavoured berries and kept them in a container for storage. After some days, the berries would have fermented and would start producing wine. By the time wine production got to ancient Iran, it took another dimension. These berries and grapes were kept in Iranian jars that were tightly sealed. This helped to properly seal and preserve the wine for longer periods of time. 

 

The Persians were not also left out of the wine history book as they were famous for producing the best wine as early as the 4th century BC. Archaeological discoveries of ancient tools used for making wines and rock carvings and paintings attest to the popularity of Persian Wine in ancient times. A popular Persian fable tells of a woman who had been banished from the king’s harem and had gone into depression. Devastated at the thought of losing her place as one of the king’s concubines, the woman is believed to have taken poison, a container having spoilt berries and pomegranates that were believed to no longer be fit for consumption. But instead of dying, she found herself intoxicated and eventually passed out. 

 

After regaining consciousness, she discovered that her problems seemed to have all gone away. She then went on to tell the king about the new discovery. The king tried out the newfound drink and experienced the same effect. Excited, he declared that more wine is produced using the fruits in the kingdom and reinstated the young lady as a member of his harem. 

 

Winemaking also flourished in ancient Egypt and played a major role in its ceremonial life. There were misconceptions about wine as the major colour of wine in Egypt was red. Some believed that wine was the blood of those who had died in battle and been buried. And whose blood had mixed with the earth and helped to germinate the fruits being used for making the wine. Different places have different historical records about who discovered wine. Nonetheless, wine is a unique drink that has remained in vogue for centuries.
