Five steps to taste red wine
Prepare to drink red wine. Red wine is placed horizontally, and the cork will decompose and produce sawdust if it is soaked for a long time. Stand up the day before drinking and let the sawdust settle on the bottom of the bottle. Note that the bottom of the bottle of red wine bulges towards the middle. This design is not to hold the bottle well, but to let the sawdust sink into the ditch. Red wine can't be drunk with ice, nor can it be put in an ice bucket like champagne. The optimum drinking temperature is 10~ 14℃. Guangzhou can drink it directly in winter; In summer, it is best to put it in the freezer first, take it out one to half an hour before eating, open the bottle first, put it aside and slowly sober up to let the temperature rise.

Wine tasting. Look at the color of the wine first. For correct observation, put the glass in front of the white background and tilt the glass slightly outward. Pay attention to whether there are sawdust or impurities, and observe the color of the wine. Brown, broken; Purple, the wine is very young; Deep red, brown in appearance, good wine. Then there is the smell of wine. Cover the mouth of the cup with your nostrils and take a deep breath. High-grade red wine smells "strong", which makes people feel very strong and complicated. Because the nose is far more sensitive than the tongue, sometimes a glass of wine tastes more and more fragrant after an hour, so that I don't want to drink it later. After smelling it, I feel very strong, then try to drink it, take a shallow sip, put it in your mouth, push the wine to your mouth with the tip of your tongue, and try to make all taste cells feel it.

Pour the wine. The bottles of high-grade red wine are all collected, because some wine labels are simply works of art. In order to avoid the "flowing" of wine, the correct way to pour wine is to make the front of the wine face up. Old wine (more than 8- 10 years old) must have sawdust at the bottom of the bottle, even if it is three or five years old, some have sawdust. Therefore, be careful when pouring wine. In addition to not shaking the bottle, leave a little on the shoulder of the bottle when you finish pouring it. It is not right to turn the bottle upside down and try to pour the last drop of wine.

Wake up. After the red wine is opened, let it stand for 15 minutes to 1 hour according to the type, quality and maturity of the wine, and let it "breathe" with the air for chemical interaction. If you don't have patience, you can pour it directly into the glass (according to international standards, it can't exceed one-third of the glass capacity), or even shake the glass to speed up the chance of wine contacting the air. There are two ways to shake the glass. One is to pick up the glass and shake it inward. In this way, the glass is suspended, and it takes a little skill to shake it evenly. Another method is to hold the foot of the cup with your forefinger and middle finger, put the whole palm flat on the bottom of the cup, press the bottom of the cup on the table, and rotate it like grinding ink, with less force to avoid the wine overflowing from the mouth of the cup.

Wine tasting. Expensive and delicious red wine is a work of art, don't "drink" it, but "taste". Before each tasting, shake the glass, then take a deep breath through your nose and take a sip, so that the wine can stay in your mouth for a while before swallowing. Attention, please clean your mouth before drinking, otherwise there will be lip prints on the cup. Don't drink grapes and wine at once. In addition, drink red wine without sherbet or lemon, which will destroy the original flavor of red wine. Shake a small handleless wine cup, one by one to compare the amount of alcohol, not the way to drink red wine.
