A Structured Approach to Tasting

INT-WINE-1-3 · Tasting, Serving and Pairing Onboard · INT-WINE-1-3.1 Tasting Systematically

A structured tasting always follows the same order: appearance, nose, palate, conclusion. On the palate, assess sweetness, acidity, tannin, alcohol, body, flavour intensity and finish separately, and never confuse fruitiness with sweetness.
