Many would disagree that drinking wine is amongst the best pleasures in an individuals life. And whilst the act of drinking something is quite simple, there are a few procedures you need to follow so as to get the most out of your wine. There are various steps for red wine and white wine, so in this post we are going to teach you the easiest way to drink red wine.
Firstly you'll need to open the bottle of wine, and the most reliable tool to use here's a corkscrew. These are available at most bottle shops and supermarkets, and you don't need to buy a dear one as even the most straightforward corkscrew will do the job! You need to cut the foil that's sealing in the cork, and then you want to insert the corscrew into the cork by turning the corkscrew. Once the corkscrew is in the cork, use the corkscrew to gradually lever the cork out of the bottle. If the wine is 1 or 2 years old you want to take care not to hurt the cork as this can taint the wine.
Once the bottle of wine is open the next step is to pour it into a wine glass. Fill the glass up about halfway, and remember to twist the bottle at the end to minimize drips from the bottle. Now comes the better part - the smelling and tasting!
Swirl the wine in the glass in order to dissipate the smell into the air. When you've swirled the glass a couple of times, place your nose at the top of the glass and smell the wine. If your wine is a full bodied Shiraz, the smell should be strong and bold when you smell it.
Now you need to sample the wine. Sip the wine from the glass, but before you swallow the wine, swirl it around your mouth so that your tastebuds can capture all the flavours. After swirling it in your mouth, swallow the wine and then wait for the aftertaste to linger on the tongue. If you follow these steps you are sure to get the most from your wine!
