The Color of Wine:

Blind Tasting Three Colors of Wine

Wed, July 25, 2018, 5-7pm (20% off sale all day)

The visualexperience of looking at a wine has a big influenceon the taste experience. In an extreme example of this, wine professionals at a two day evaluation of wines, tasted a line-up of white wines on the first day, and used appropriate descriptors for white wines. The following day they tasted the same line-up of wines, but dyed red. They used wine descriptors appropriate for red wines, and no one figured it out that they were tasting white wines. 

 

Come and see, no taste, for yourself. We will have a white, a rosé and a redwine(we may add in an orange wine) for you to taste with a mask on, and say which you think is which. This is for fun and not to worry about being “right”. After all, there will be guessing involved, so someone who gets them all right may have been a lucky guesser. Overall results (no names) will be reported in the following newsletter. You can opt to just taste the wines if you don’t want to be part of the fun. As usual, the wines will be discounted 20% for the day.
