Wine Tasting Notes
As I sit and taste this wine, the first thing that comes to me is the ruby/crimson color. This to me indicates a balanced wine that should have flavor and acidity. As I smell the wine, I get cranberry, raspberry and a touch of perfumed spice. The flavors are of red fruits that are balanced, a delicate sweetness follows. The texture of the wine is one of balance. As many of you know, I place a lot of emphasis on having enough acidity to keep the wine alive. For me, the acid/tannin balance is really nice.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
