Tasting in the Dark with Dr. Hoby Wedler

We are so proud to announce that Dr. Hoby Wedler will be hosting his highly customized Tasting in the Dark experience with us at Notre Vue Estate. This is a truly blindfolded experience where guests are allowed to explore the world through their non-visual senses and pay attention to details that they never knew existed. Guests are blindfolded for about an hour and engage in great conversation where we focus our minds on the discussion that Hoby leads. Then, we use different aromas to build our aromatic vocabularies which come in handy when tasting. We conclude with an educational and entertaining tasting and charcuterie from Journeyman Meat Co.

We use our eyesight to take in between 85-90% of our surroundings. Therefore, we have four additional perfectly good senses that we only use to obtain 10-15% of information. Tasting in the Dark allows us to experience the world for a short time without the distraction of eyesight. The main outcome is an attention to detail that people have never experienced. Additionally, people gain a tremendous understanding of product aroma or flavor which can help immensely in making key decisions.

We hardly scratched the surface on the value of Tasting in the Dark. Join us on the journey of Tasting in the Dark. Wine Club members please contact the main office for special pricing on tickets.
