WJR Wine List – The Fifth “S”


The Fifth “S” of Wine is to Swallow or Spit

By The Wine CounselorSM

Now that the wine is in your mouth, what do you do?.

If you’re tasting only a few wines, do what comes naturally.

When you swallow the wine pay attention to how long the finish lasts. The longer the finish, the better the wine!

If you’re at a wine tasting, please spit the wine out. Yes, I know it seems silly to spit perfectly good wine but if you’re tasting many different wines, you need to spit. We do this to be fair to the wines we taste later in the evening. You can always return to the wines you like and have a bit more.
