Can He GUESS THE WINE? Tough Blind Tasting CHALLENGE w/TV Host and Sommelier!

Enjoy the show? We're independently owned and produced and would LOVE your support! https://www.visforvino.com/vino-vip It's time to blind-taste wine again! I'm a certified sommelier, and this video will help teach you how to taste wine, both for blind tasting, but also to help you learn how to taste in general! This is the 3rd episode of our blind tasting series Vino Blind, where I get a wine in front of me, I have no idea what it is, and we see if I can guess the answer. It can be a challenge, but also help you learn and get better! This is a great exercise for people who are studying for sommelier exams, whether Court of Master Sommeliers or WSET. I'll go through the steps of blind tasting from sight to nose to palate and tell you what I'm thinking along the way. As I taste, I will make sure to tell you at home what clues I'm getting about the wine so that you can try and guess the wine too! Eventually, we'll come up with an initial conclusion about the wine based on its color, flavors (citrus, peach, floral, etc) and structure (acid, tannin, alcohol, body, sugar) and come up with a few possible grape varieties and locations. Finally, we'll make our guess; what grape/s, what region the wine is from, what quality or price, and what vintage. Then we do the BIG REVEAL and analyze whether we got it right or wrong so we can learn from our experiences or mistakes.
