Wine

Western culture owes a lot to the ancient Romans--classical architecture, rhetoric, and not least among the list is their appreciation for wine, a sentiment echoed by one of America's founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson: "Good wine is a necessity of life for me."

Tips to Taste Like a Connoisseur:

  1. Look at the color and clarity of the wine in the glass.

  2. Tilt the glass and look at the “edge” of the wine (where it meets the glass).

  3. Swirl the wine to see how much “body” it has.

  4. Take a small sip.

  5. After the first sip, swirl the wine in your mouth and notice how it feels and tastes.

  6. Swallow the wine and take note of any after-tastes.

  7. Think about the wine's impression on your senses.
