Here’s an insider tip👇 👅 As a wine expert that can taste up to several wines daily, it’s important to know the best tricks to reset your palate between tastings! 💧Water and plain crackers are almost always offered at large tastings, but when you’re tasting around 100 wines in one day, the water and crackers are more specifically used for hydration and to absorb the alcohol rather than palate cleanse. 🧠 what you may not know is that if you’re in full fledge review mode, it’s a mental and sensory overload! Leading to palate fatigue and headaches. 🥂 My most tried and true palate cleanse is sparkling wine! The low alcohol, high acid, bubbly structure brushes away leftover tannin and flavours without leaving much on the palate to interfere with your next tasting. I find this most helpful between those heavy, full-bodied reds. #winetasting #wineexpert
