Wine Tasting - A Guide to Wine Tasting Events
Wine tasting events are becoming more and more popular. From college classrooms to vacations to
Napa Valley, if you're going to a wine tasting event and aren't familiar with the protocol, you'll stick
out like a sore thumb.
The first thing to note when you go to a wine tasting event is that the staff at various tasting rooms are
there to help educate you, not be snooty. It is perfectly acceptable to bring a pad of paper and a pen to
take notes. Also, if the staff member doesn't mention a type of wine that you're interested in, it's okay
to ask for a specific kind.
The order of the wines usually goes from light to heavy and then from dry to sweet. Since some wines
don't follow others very well, it's best to take the staff's advice when deciding which wines to try
first. You don't have to try every wine that is offered to you, and you don't have to finish the entire
glass that is poured for you. If you find one that you don't like, discreetly dump the remainder of the
glass into the dump bucket.
There are two things that you should never do when tasting wine: refill your own glass and loudly
proclaim a negative opinion of a wine. In fact, in some states it is illegal to refill your own wine glass.
If you don't want to swallow all of the wine that you taste, you may spit it out. Under no
circumstances are you to spit into the dump bucket. Instead, ask for a disposable spit cup. Experts are
torn about gurgling and swishing, but most agree that when you're in doubt it's best to err on the side
of being discreet.
Wine tasting can be a lot of fun, but not if you're wearing lots of cologne or perfume. Not only do the
scents interfere with your ability to enjoy the wine objectively and without interference, but it affects
your neighbors as well. The best option is to go without for the day.
