Whether you're an experienced oenophile or a wine newbie, the guide from Wine Download has a range of handy holiday tips and tricks for you to enjoy and store the alcoholic beverage.
Recent statistics from Civic Science show that wine is an essential part of the holiday season in the United States, as overall rates of consumption tend to increase and people turn to more expensive varieties as gifts. With the guide from Wine Download, you can learn more about how to select and enjoy a special bottle during the festive period as you look ahead to your party or family event schedule. “Wine tasting is not just about drinking wine; it’s a sensory experience that engages all your senses,” says a spokesperson from the organization. “We help you develop a more sophisticated wine vocabulary and explore different varieties for your table this year.”
Along with tips for appreciating the complex taste profiles of classic favorites like Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Syrah, or Chardonnay, the guide also gives you advice on how to spot a bottle that has become spoiled (ew!). You'll learn how to identify tell-tale odors, like vinegar or wet cardboard, as well as how to note any musty or moldy scents that can indicate cork taint.
The guide covers some ideal food and wine combinations for your holiday events, such as matching Malbec with gourmet dark chocolate, or a fruity Pinot Noir with milk chocolate confectioneries.
You'll also find detailed information on the effects of terroir when it comes to wine-making and tasting, as well as the reasons why you should take care to support small, family-owned wineries whenever possible.
Finally, for any bottles of wine that may remain unopened after the holiday guests have gone home, the guide gives practical advice on how you can store and age fine wines, including tips for positioning and temperature control.
