How to taste wine?

Tasting wine involves a combination of sight, smell, and taste. Here are the steps to follow when tasting wine:

Look at the wine

Hold the glass up to a light source and observe the color, clarity, and viscosity of the wine.

Swirl the wine

Gently swirl the wine in the glass to release the aromas.

Smell the wine

Take a deep sniff of the wine and try to identify the different aromas.

Taste the wine

Take a small sip of the wine and let it sit on your tongue for a moment before swallowing. Pay attention to the flavors, acidity, tannins, and finish of the wine.

Evaluate the wine

After you’ve tasted the wine, evaluate its overall balance and complexity.

It’s important to note that wine tasting is a personal experience and that everyone’s perception and taste are unique.
