Wine Tasting:

Wine tasting is the art of evaluating wines. When wine tasting you utilize the sensory of sight smell
and taste. Wine tasters evaluate the look of the wine in the glass, the fragrance of the wine and the
taste of the wine. There is also the “finish” of the wine or the aftertaste.

Wine tasters when tasting wines are served wines
without knowing what color the wine is nor do they
know who the maker is and the origin of the wine. This is called “Blind Tasting.”

When wine tasters are trying to determine the
similarities and differences they do what is called
“Vertical” and “Horizontal” tasting. Vertical are the
differences in same wine types but different
vintages. Horizontal tasting is wines from the
same vintage but different wineries.

The art of wine tasting is as follows; color, swirl,
smell, taste and savor. A wine taster must look for
clarity and to do this it is easiest to put the wine
against a white background.  The wine taster is
looking at the components of the wine to
determine whether the wine is balanced.
