A formal tasting should take place in an environment with ample light. Use your sense of sight, smell and taste, in that order, to assess and evaluate the wine you are trying.
• Do clear your palate with water between wines.
• Do make notes of your impressions based on your three senses listed above.
• Don’t eat foods that are over powering with spices or too sweet.
• Don’t wear perfumes because aromas can affect your sense of smell and be intrusive.
It also helps to use glasses with wide bowls and narrow mouths to concentrate aromas and deliver the wine to your palate.
Why is All Corked Up a wine lover’s haven? Rueben Garcia from Santa Clarita has been coming for some time. He loves trying the extensive wine selection served by its knowledgeable staff. “I can enjoy so many wines in a beautiful atmosphere with friends, listen to music or even enjoy a fine cigar out on the patio,” said Garcia. Another fan and resident of Santa Clarita enjoys All Corked Up’s monthly wine of the month club. She looks forward and eagerly anticipates each month’s new arrival. “It’s like Christmas every month. I get two great bottles of wine each month with a great recipe that’s delicious, easy to make, and goes well with wines I receive,” said Andrea Adams.
