Wine tasting
Wine tasting is the practice of assessing and appreciating the flavors, aromas, and overall characteristics of wine. Participants typically observe the wine's color, swirl it in the glass to release scents, and then sniff to identify its aromas. Tasting involves taking a small sip, letting it coat the palate, and noting flavors and textures. After swallowing or spitting, tasters often evaluate the wine's finish or aftertaste. This process helps consumers understand different varieties, regions, and styles of wine, enhancing their appreciation and ability to choose wines that match their preferences.
