How to taste wine : a new approach to wine testing

A simple approach to help everyone to understand and share the taste of all wines

Using this approach and allowing curiosity and wonder to guide your wine tasting is the golden ticket to a journey of the senses and of the mind.

Wine tasting involves all our senses; it relies on the eyes for colour, the nose for aromas, the ears for effervescence, the palate for aromas and flavours. All that remains is to perceive, identify and express what is sensed.

Wine-lovers, be they novice or expert, will find in this book the methods and essential notions of agronomy and oenology, as well as a glossary to help them better understand the language of the wine world.
