: How do I taste wine like a pro?

If you’re keen to learn more about the wines you love, here are some tips on how to truly experience each glass.

🍷 LOOK: Tilt the glass at an angle of 45 degrees away from you and assess its colour for tone and depth. Orange in white wines or brown in red wines can indicate a wine fault or that the wine has age.

🍷 SWIRL & SMELL: Gently swirl the wine in the glass, bury your nose deep in the bowl and have a smell. What fruit do you first smell? Have another sniff: are there layers of other aromas underneath it?

🍷 TASTE: Take a sip and before you swallow, think about your first impression of the wine. What does you taste? When you swallow, how does it feel in your mouth? What's your last impression of the wine, and how long does it last?

Cheers to Friday, perfect patio pounder for a 91 degree day in Wisconsin

Haha

Ha!

In need of a time out? This would work for me 😂

I need a lot of time outs.

This is especially true when you go to Napa or Sonoma, you need a good base for wine tasting all day.

Truth

When you get to Napa, specifically Yountville, I highly recommend tasting at Heron House Yountville. It's a great experience and the truffle chips make this tasting even better. If you are lucky, Allison Stelzner will be in the house!

9 wine brands, 3 tasting menus, and endless truffle chips… what more could ya’ need from a wine tasting experience?!

Join us in our luxe tasting lounge just steps from Washington Street in what the locals call "SOYO" or South Yountville: www.exploretock.com/heronhouse

We hope to welcome you very soon!
