Wine- making and tasting has a long and varied past, steeped in both fact and supposition. Many experts believe that wine probably dates back to 6000 B.C. Wine tasting has become the sensory examination and evaluation of wine its self. Professionals are always changing the formal way in which is used to describe the range of perceived flavour, aromas and general characteristics of wine.
Tasting wine is done for a number of reasons; to figure out if it has to be aged, to detect any of the wine's faults, to know a wine's character. Normally wine tasting consists of four stages: colour, charity, smell and taste.
First, the appearance is considered - the colour, clarity and texture - by swishing the wine around in its glass. Then, you'll put your nose in the glass to understand the aroma of the wine. The next stage is tasting the wine, but it's not as straightforward as it may seem. You should take a small sip, let it swirl slowly around your mouth, and try to distinguish the three different stages - Attack, Evolution and Finish. Then comes the final stage. A wine's finish is how long its flavour and impression lasts after it is swallowed. This is when experts might take notes about a wine's properties - was it light, medium or full bodied. Did it taste oaky and smokey, or fruity? Most importantly - Did you enjoy the wine? Do you want to take another sip?
You might have gotten the wrong idea about wine tasting over the years but wine tasting is for everyone, wine courses and wine tastings focus on enjoying wine and learning more in a relaxed and informal setting, with friendly people.
Learning about wine can be an extremely rewarding experience. Not only can you show off to your friends and colleagues, but you will also finally be able to pick suitable wines to match meals and pick wines in shops, safe in the knowledge that you know what you're talking about. In London alone, there are hundreds of venues hosting wine tasting events, and even several world renowned 'Academies' to learn everything you need to know about wine and tasting, taught by Masters of Wine, professional Wine Buyers and top Sommeliers.
