Engaging The 5 Senses With Wine
Did you know you could engage all five of your senses with a glass of wine? The first thing most wine drinkers do is choose a colour. You may fancy one that is white or red or somewhere in between. Wine that is pink in colour is either rosé (dry) or blush (sweet) wine. Does the wine sparkle in the light, or is it dull and cloudy? Before you smell the wine, swirl3 it in your glass. The aroma4 may remind you of fruit, flowers, spices, or wood. If the wine is off it may smell sour. Take a sip and engage your sense of taste. Is it sweet, bitter, or tart5? Now, feel the wine with your tongue. Is it smooth or grainy? Hopefully it isn’t too watery6 or dry. Finally, don’t forget to engage your sense of hearing. Raise your glass and clink it with a friend or lover. Cheers!
