Usually we pay attention to many details of wine tasting when tasting, but sometimes we don't take care of a lot, so let's learn the correct wine tasting skills with you.
First, watch the color. First of all, the wine should not be too full, just about one-third of the red wine glass. When the wine is poured, don't shake it first, but put it between bright light and eyes to observe the clarity of the wine. The wine should be clear, but it is not a defect if the cork is accidentally dropped into the wine when opening the bottle, or some wines with some age have some sediments. Then, tilt the glass 45 against the white background or white wall to observe the color of the wine. The color of white wine ranges from almost colorless light green to lemon yellow, golden yellow and then amber; The color of red wine ranges from purple-black to ruby red, brick red and brown. Generally speaking, white wine is getting darker and darker, while red wine is getting lighter with age. There are also shades of concentration in wine. Concentration refers to the transparency of wine. The edge color of red wine is lighter than the color of the cup center, while that of white wine is the opposite. This is the refractive difference caused by alcohol tension. The longer the wine age, the greater the color difference between the cup center and the edge, which is a method to judge the age of wine. Wine also has the ability to reflect light. The newer the wine, the more shiny it becomes, and the older it becomes, the dimmer it becomes. There is also an important indicator to measure the quality of wine, which is called hanging glass. Shake the glass gently for two or three times and observe the traces of the glass wall dripping down, commonly known as "hanging the cup". The phenomenon of hanging glass is the expression of the tension between alcohol, glycerol and residual sugar in wine. The slower the wine drips down, the higher the alcohol and residual sugar in this wine, and the lower it is.
