No matter what the wine aficionados out there would have you believe, no one is born a master wine taster. And it's certainly not as hard as they make it out to be. Join me as we learn how our senses can help us better understand a wine and how it was made. We will discuss aroma taint, the purpose of swirling and how to describe a wine so you can find more bottles you will enjoy.
For your reference, here is one of the better aroma wheels out there. Use this to help narrow down aromas when swirling and sniffing: https://winefolly.com/tips/wine-aroma-wheel-100-flavors/
Next week will be a bit different; we will be taking a haunted audio tour around town as we learn about the ghosts and ghouls that inhabit Sonoma Valley.
