Did you know there's a systematic approach to tasting wine? Sommeliers, winemakers, and industry professionals (mostly) all approach wine in this way.

1) Assess the appearance. This could mean everything from color, intensity, clarity, etc.

2) The nose. The aromas in the glass can tell a lot about the wine, and give you clues as to varietal, region, and climate.

3) What is it like on the palate? Each part of your tongue will pick up different types of flavors, You'll also assess for things like acidity, alcohol content, etc.

4) Finally time to make your conclusion! Is the wine good? If you're blind tasting, what's in the glass?

What do you assess for? Or do you just taste wine for fun? Let us know in the comments!
