What does a private wine tasting look like? Well, probably less formal than you think! Definately not stuffy or snobby. Yet when I asked this question to a group of business owners recently, half said things like this; stuffy and formal, for snobby wine drinkers, expensive -like a formal dinner. There was much worse!! This is me below. I love to teach, especially to the beginners and the curious. I prove wine can be for everyone, in a relaxed, educational and fun way. I teach online too if you aren't local to me. Choose your next wine with confidence. #winebeginner #winetasting #CellarClass

One of the most discussed topics in the wine world is how to assess the quality of a wine. Many people think that they can judge the quality of a wine based on things like the wine’s colour, the bottle, its tears/legs. But these things tell you nothing about the quality of a wine. What really tells you the quality of a wine is the word BLIC Here’s what BLIC stands for B - Balance L - Length I - Intensity C - Complexity High-quality wines will express intense flavors and a lingering finish, with flavors lasting after you’ve swallowed the wine. Flavors that disappear immediately can indicate that your wine is of moderate quality at best. The better the wine, the longer the flavor finish will last on your palate.
