How best to stage a wine tasting?

Posted by SamA on November 4, 2018 at 13:43:10:
I'm new at this, but I enjoy reading about the wine tasting parties here. So, for a newbie who's looking to invite in a few new neighbors, how best to stage a tasting?

What is an ideal group? Six?

Best time of day to host?

Blind test each bottle? New glasses with each new wine? I assume some nibbles in between wines. What's ideal?

What would be a good "family" of wines to get out the gate? Chards? Merlot?

Any other advice on hosting?
