Different Tongues - Power of Suggestion

[n144mann]

Randy, you make it all sound so easy. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] Jenaroo, as a fellow novice, don't get discouraged!! It does start to come with time and with a LOT of tasting. (which is why we started the process right?! we enjoy wine) Anyway, hang in there and even if it seems like everyone else can do it but you, you will get it eventually. A couple of things that help when I am tasting....do it alone in a quiet area, NO distractions-just you and the wine and maybe some reviews by the big guys to help learn descriptors, and along that same route, closing my eyes seems to help me focus. Try it, looks a little silly, but you are supposed to be alone so who cares. As for the classmates who say they can already do it, who knows.....maybe they are faking it...

Enjoy the process!!
