Wine Tips

When tasting the wine there are many descriptors you might experience. But each of these will fall into 3 basic categories. Again, they are one of the following:
Wine tip #1 -Sweetness
Sweetness is the opposite of dry.
Off-dry is in the middle. It has a touch of sweetness.
Sweet is sweet. It just depends on how much sugar is in the wine.
Wine tip #2 - Acidity
White wines are generally more acidic than red wines.
Acidity is often an indicator of dryness.
Acidity is indicative of the level of crispness.
Non acidic wines are fat or flabby.
Wine tip #3-Tannin
Tannin comes from the skins, the seeds, and the stems of the grapes.
It causes the drying out feeling in your mouth at the end of the taste and in the finish.
Too much tannin sometimes causes a bitter taste.
