WINE TASTING AND

EVALUATION
WINE TASTING
PROCESS
5 BASIC STEPS
1. Sight/Color – to determine the intensity of color of the wine, hold the
glass at the base or foot. If your fingers are not visible it means it is
intense. Move your fingers at the stem and if it is no visible it means the
wine is medium to pale in color.
2. Swirl – swirling the wine in the glass will facilitate the release of bouquet
of the old wine or the aroma of the young wine.
3. Smell – to determine the intensity of the smell of the wine, after swirling
the wine put the wine below your chin. If you cannot smell the wine, it
means it is either medium or light but if you can smell it, it means it is
intense. Move the glass at your lower lip if you can now smell the wine, it
means the wine is medium. But if you still cannot smell the wine, move
the glass to your nose to detect what particular smell the wine has.
