Wine tasting is a popular activity among the casual wine drinker and oenophiles alike. But if you're new to wine tasting, there are some basic "rules" to follow. Properly tasting red wines and white wines can truly make you appreciate the work that was put into creating that bottle. Noticing different aromas, textures, and flavors can enhance your experience, allowing you to truly enjoy the wine.
Before you even begin to pour the wine, ensure that you have the correct wine glasses. Wide goblets are used because they help release aromatics in the wine, so don't be caught with a tumbler glass or a champagne flute! When pouring the wine, don't fill the glass up entirely. Instead, fill it about one-third of the way to leave room for swirling and to give the wine room to let aromas build. Before smelling or tasting comes looking. Look at the color of the wine. What color is it exactly? Don't just say "dark red." Is it more purple or maroon? It helps to hold a white piece of paper behind the glass. It's also good to compare wines side by side. Notice the difference between older and younger wines and different grape varietals. New red wines are often more purple than older ones. Some words to keep in mind are bright, dull, opaque, clear, and dense.
