In order to enhance wine experiences by making participants more aware of origins or notes, Graphene 3D Lab and Ideum teamed up to create an [interactive tasting table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/placemat-hightop-table) for California's JCB Wines.

The JCB Wine Tasting Experience is high-tech from start to finish, involving 3D-printed wine glasses and a smart touchscreen table. When attending one of the brand's new JCB Tasting Salons, four visitors are taken on a [sensory journey of wine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/february-wine-tasting).

The 3D-printed wine glasses themselves were developed with a capacitive technology that's able to pick up on the wine types in different glasses. With this information, when a glass of wine is placed on the surface of the table, it is able to bring up virtual image collages and notes on flavor or details on the wine-making process.
