wine tasting dryness, learn more about wine, red, tell me wine TV, white, wine 101, wine education No Comments
Today’s question was sent in from Tom from Tottenville (Staten Island, NY) who asks “Where does the dryness in wine comes from?”.
Part 1: Dryness in Red wines
Part 2: Dryness in White wines
In red wines the dryness is the result of tannins.
“The tannins in wine are from two sources: firstly from the grape seeds, skins and stems, and secondly from the oak barrels (typically Quercus petraea or “French oak”) in which wine is made.” (Wikipedia)
Over time the tannins allow the wine to mature.
In white wines essentially it is the absence of sugar.
Wine like Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay are dry because they don’t have a lot of sugar.

wine tasting eyes, learn more about wines, method, nose, palate, tell me wine TV, wine 101, wine education, wine tasting 2 Comments
Today’s question is from Rudy from the West Village (New York City) who asks “Is there a rigorous way to taste wine?”.
Color will tell you a lot about the age of wine and to a certain degree what grapes the wine is made from.
This Cabernet Sauvignon from Australia exhibit a pretty solid cast of dark ruby red across the entire glass.
There is no real signs of age as you can not see any rounding or orange.
You have to exercise to develop your own repertoir of memories.
In this wine Jeremy is getting a lot of glycerin, eucalyptus.
You have the ability to taste four primary things: salt, sweet, sour and bitter.
Grapes just don’t taste as grapes: they taste like earth, bananas, blueberries, asphalts…
It is the combination of all those things which will give you guidance to what a wine is, where the wine is from, what the grapes are, how old it is…

Today’s question is from Boo in Edinburgh (Scotland) who asks “Is Dom Perignon REALLY better than mid range Champagne such as Veuve Clicquot?”.
Althought Dom Perignon is considered as one of the best Champagne in the world it is NOT better than any other Champagne because in the end it all comes down to your personal taste.
Dom Perignon is exquisite, it can age and it’s prestigious. But every Champagne is different.
Every Champagne is mainly made of a combination of three grapes:
So every Champagne will taste different and will appeal to different individuals.
The big difference between Dom Perignon and other Champagne is that all Dom Perignon Champagne are always vintage dated. Vintage dating happened when a vintage, an harvest is considered of a certain quality. Dom perignon only bottles when there is an harvest of this quality.
Dom Perignon if you can get it, drink it. But also try Champagne from small winemakers which are sometimes less expensive but still very good.

wine tasting fun, How many flavors can we feel, learn about wines, tell me wine TV, wine 101, wine education 1 Comment
Today’s question is from Patrick in New Rochelle who asks “How many aromas and flavors can we really distinguish through our nose and palate?”.
Basically there are four flavors that we can taste:
Everything else is about your nose and your ability to memorize specific odors or aromas
If you read wine description you will see everything from fruits (pineapple, blackberry, cherry,…) to peppers or even to more man made smells like asphalt, milk chocolate ice cream…
Jeremy recommands you to spend time smelling wine and smelling the things around you like wood, your car or a baby diaper (!). Also use tasting notes to discover the nomenclature of terms used to describe wine.
Finally you can smell hundreds of things in wine, it is really up to you and your experience.
