Team building experiences to strengthen human connections
Spend quality time with your colleagues and build strong human connections. These experiences use wine and the vineyard landscapes as a personal development tools to generate new conversations, create moments and make connections.
Team building experiences
that help you to spend quality time
and to connect with your colleagues
Wine has the power to unite and connect.
Today, even with alcohol-free drinks, teams can enjoy a moment to relax
and let their guard down after a long day of business-focused work.
These team-building experiences are a chance for your group
to spend quality time together offsite.
We know that by sharing a new experience
people connect in ways they wouldn’t in the office.
The sessions use wine as a personal development tool,
to generate new conversations and strengthen human connections.
You may be used to regular wine tastings or
informal Ápero events with wines,
but we see them in a different light.
We learn about storytelling,
organize offsite activities in memorable settings,
host co-creation experiences, play with LEGOs,
and discover more about ourselves using a paintbrush with a canvas.
We can facilitate team experiences so you can build skills,
address team challenges, and achieve specific business objectives.

We’ll be happy to meet your team.

What to expect from our team building activities
Wine as working tool
Human connections
Team skill learning
Discover the experiential learning power of the world of wine and the natural environment of the vineyards. Wine becomes a powerful tool to learn from when complemented with coaching and facilitating techniques. We elevate it to the role of a teacher, communicator, storyteller, messenger and inspiring muse.
“Wonderful experience! Booked a full day event with bike tours, wine tasting, lots of fun moments to enjoy the beauties of Alsace while celebrating a good time with friends/ teammates. Juan’s customer-oriented mindset, high energy and really pleasant personality made this a very special event. Strongly recommended.”
Why do we create team building experiences using wine as a personal development tool?
Team dynamics have changed over the last two years, and those changes are here to stay.
We work and collaborate remotely around the globe but our need for love and belonging remains intact. We still need friendship and companionship if we are to tackle the ever-increasing challenges of our daily work life.
We need to spend time together. We need to connect at a human level. We need to empathise.
Our team building experiences are created to provide the human glue that helps team members relate better to each other. We spend quality time together, create a shared memory and put trust “in the process”. We let the “mountain view” do the talking.
Human magic happens all the time.
We use wine because we believe it is a brilliant communication tool. It is the messenger of an idea, a creation and a thought we can all learn from. It can tell stories and has immense power to unite people around it.
With facilitation, it becomes a personal development and skill-learning tool. It helps us learn, share and create something new.
You may have never elevated wine before to a dimension outside the liquid inside the glass, but now you have the chance.
Juan Lo Bello
Founder & Wine facilitator
“Juan, I often feel like a stranger in a strange land when it comes to tastings or conversations about wine. You helped me realize that that’s because they focus too much on the wine and not enough on the connection we have to the wine or can with one another over a glass of wine. You turn experiencing wine into a life experience. That, I love. Salud!”
