even\n after nine years<\/em>. (can\u2019t read my writing).<\/p>\n Since day one we have worked our way through the winetasting\n process. Let\u2019s do it together now, starting\n with what you see: color, and consistency. \n <\/p>\n
TITLE\/SCREEN: 1: LOOK<\/p>\n
Remember to look at your wine with a white background. <\/p>\n
What color is it? Violet, ruby, or brick red? <\/p>\n
Is the color intense and opaque, or pale and translucent?<\/p>\n
Do you see green or purple tints around the edges or is\n there a clear or rusty-colored ring? <\/p>\n
How does the wine move inside the glass? Are there bubbles?<\/p>\n
This wine is nine years old and is definitely showing that brick\n red or transparency around the edges of aging red wines.<\/p>\n
Then we moved on to what you smell \u2013 the olfactory\n experience of the wine. <\/p>\n
TITLE\/SCREEN: 2: SMELL<\/p>\n
Give your glass a gentle swirl.<\/p>\n
What do you smell? How many individual notes can you\n identify? Is the nose complex? How\n intense are the aromas? <\/p>\n
This wine is not super bold on the nose. It\u2019s earthier, and\n evolved and pretty complex. It has some red berries, cherries, and a little\n spiciness- both from the Garnacha grape and the oak aging. <\/p>\n
After that we talked all about what happens on your palate,\n from the weight and feeling of the wine to the finish and aftertaste. <\/p>\n
TITLE\/SCREEN: 3: TASTE<\/p>\n
Is your wine crisp and bright with a lot of acidity or tight\n on the sides of your cheeks with tannins? <\/p>\n
How does it feel on your tongue? Light and zingy or silky\n and smooth? <\/p>\n
Is it light, medium or full-bodied?<\/p>\n
How long do the flavors and feelings last after you swallow?\n <\/p>\n
This Crianza is a nice balance of crispness and spiciness on\n the palate. Even the 2010 \/ high altitude \/ (can\u2019t read my notes). It has a\n medium finish with some cinnamon spice, and is even a bit juicy. <\/p>\n
Step Four is why we are here. <\/p>\n

TITLE\/SCREEN: 4: Converse.<\/p>\n
What does conversation mean?? A good conversation means\n presenting the facts, asking questions, and expanding the subject matter for a\n more profound experience. <\/p>\n
Notice everything your senses are telling you. Try to\n interpret them. Ask questions about what you don\u2019t understand and share your\n revelations! <\/p>\n
Where does this wine take you? What food would go well with\n it? Is it a balanced fine wine? Has it aged to its full potential? Do you like\n it? <\/p>\n
What do you talk about when you talk about wine? Let me know\n in the comments. <\/p>\n
