Wine tasting guide #athome

To the mySpirit tastings

The perfect wine tasting:

Step 1: The wine selection

Choose four to six wines, ideally with a theme:

by grape variety (e.g. Mantonegro, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc)
by region
(e.g. Mallorca, Tuscany, Moselle)
by style
(e.g. sparkling wine, white, rosé, red, dessert wine)

Tip: Start with lighter wines and progress to stronger ones.

Step 2: The accessories

Glasses: It is best to use 1 glass per person and wine, otherwise rinse with water in between.
Water carafes: For neutralizing and professional tasting.
Notepads or tasting sheets: Guests can record their impressions.

Step 3: Snacks & Food Pairing

Neutralizers: White bread, crackers, mild water.
Snacks: cheese variations, olives, nuts, ham, small tapas.
Related to the wine theme → e.g. Mallorcan products with Mallorcan wine.

Step 4: The correct order

See: Observe color & clarity.
Smell: First without swirling, then after gently swirling.
Taste:
Small sip, assess aromas & finish.
Discuss: Let guests talk about their impressions.

We wish you much success with your wine tasting!
