Swirling Your Glass – Part 2

written by Gail Sotelo April 27, 2018

I know I’ve written an article about this a long time ago (complete with my husband Chad modelling for me), but I figured it’s time for a refresher on how to properly drink and appreciate wine.

This is the more methodical, professional approach to tasting wine, of course (hence the touch of science added to it… I mean, really… One shouldn’t spit in front of proper dinner guests, right?). I think it’s a great insight as to how the pros do it and not teeter after having to evaluate 80+ wines in one sitting.

Far be it for me when the evaluator sneaks in a gulp of a stonking wine, though (guilty!).

As I always say in a wine class, however… Spit please!

Taken from my actual lecture notes. #snarky

 

Speaking of tasting, we will be back next week for our own researched tasting notes on a very different wine. #teaser

Cheers!
