Understanding the Style attributes of Wine

Understanding what you like in a wine, and being able to describe it in a store or restaurant–the Holy Grail, right? After this video (and the tastings, ya gotta do the tastings–oh, bummer!) you will be able to do that. Awesome!

Tasting for Sweetness

Many wines, including some that people think are “dry,” actually have a touch of sweetness that rounds out the ripe fruit taste and pairs beautifully with foods with a spicy kick. To see what I mean, taste along with this video, and then be sure to try the wines with a spicy snack like chips and…

Tasting for Acidity

Two tasters visiting Napa wine country from England on their first anniversary did this tasting with us. They both liked the softer-acid wine–I guess they can stay married!

Tasting for Tannins

My husband John loves wines with structured tannins, because they are a great foil for big dishes like steak. In this comparative tasting of two California Cabernets, he spotted the higher-tannin one immediately. If you taste along, be prepared: it’ll make you hungry!
