have you ever tried wine tasting? it is a sensory examination and evaluation of wines
I have! We recently rewatched the movie Sideways, where there are some pretty funny scenes about wine tasting. Do you have a favorite vineyard or type of wine?
with all the varities of grapes and strains there are a lot of types, but they are all so good, I am not sure if i have a favorite!
Of course a lot of people use wine tasting as an excuse to *drink* wine. Really, you're supposed to just hold it in your mouth for the taste, then spit it out!
Yeah there is certainly a portion of people that are more informal and do it for recreation in a much less analytical way
The most beautiful setting I ever did wine tasting was in Italy. Of course ;-) Nothing like being surrounded by the Tuscan countryside while sampling Chianti!
i have heard they are known for the dessert wine Vin Santo, which is made from local grapes
Yes! And delicious! There's also another wine, Ripassa, that we love. Almost anything red, really. Or champagne ;-)
i do like red, but I never was a fan of champagne, or sparkling wine. There are even laws around labelling a drink champagne which is interesting
