Wine Tasting

[n144mann]

Well, I have to admit to learning about this subject the hard way. I went to my first tasting......about 150 wines being offered....and dug right in.....busily jotting notes down in my journal as I went.

I tasted and swallowed each wine....not drinking nearly all of what was offered at each turn, but not spitting any out either, except for the occasional one that I really disliked. Man, did my notes go downhill!!!!
Darn that low alcohol tolerance of mine....<laugh>

Even tho I made it through only a small fraction of the wines, it was simply WAY too much alcohol to ingest. To any beginners, I would highly recommend spitting it out....it is hard enough to judge the wines, without having all of your senses dulled by the alcohol.
