Hosts the evening. Pours blind. Marks correct guesses on the scoresheet.
Two to five players. Maximum five, beyond that the palate gets tired before the truth.
Qualification is the standard round of five wines. Finals is a tighter three-wine playoff for ties.

"The Drimia tripped you up. It always does. Petit Verdot at altitude reads younger than its vintage suggests, that's the trick of Yatir. Sara, your nose was sharp tonight. Maksim, you misread the Cave for the Lueria, same family, different houses. Pour again next month?"
A respectable second place. Carlos was right, Petit Verdot at altitude tastes younger. You guessed Lueria when the answer was The Cave: same vineyard family, but a different terroir signature. Worth a return match.
