Have you ever picked up a glass of wine and while everyone around you was tasting something fruity or earthy…all you tasted was just wine? Ever wondered what the heck someone meant when they said they loved a “full bodied wine” or wanted something with “low tannins?” I know I have. 

What if I told you that learning to taste wine was as easy as four simple steps? And that once you learn these steps and discover the art of wine tasting, you’ll unlock the ability to describe exactly what you love in wine. 

I promise you if you can tell the difference between a cheddar chip and a barbeque chip you can taste the different flavors in wine and I’m going to help you do just that. 

So, join me as I walk you through my proven 4-step wine tasting method because once you know this method you’ll be able to confidently taste and explore new wines.

Grab my wine tasting guide here https://www.corkandfizz.com/winetastingguide and a glass of wine and let’s walk through this process together!

Episode Highlights:

• Determine what you like in a wine and how to rate it
• Learn how to distinguish aromas like fruit, herbs, and spices in your wine
• Find out what tannin is and whether your wine is light or full bodied
• Discover what the “legs” or “tears” of a wine tell us
• Uncover what it means to “chew” on a wine
