ffiondove_20Last evening husband and I went for our first class of a 3 evening (tuesdays) course called Wine Wisdom, the title speaks for itself really ;-) It was very interesting, they took us through the process of wine production from grapevine to bottle explaining every aspect of the process along the way. Then we were given 6 glasses of wine, 3 white and 3 red - now each glass of wine was in fact the same wine but where as the first glass of white/red was a new wine - each of the other two was 3 and 4 years older respectively. This demonstrated how the wine behaves with the passage of time - it was really interesting the different flavours and colours that occur as a wine matures. Next week we are learning how to *read* a wine label on the bottle, what all the different codes and markings mean, I am looking forward to it........and don't worry I didn't quafe 6 glasses of wine as we had to spit into a bucket and eat a wafer in between each glass!........which was a little bit ....erm......disappointing? xxx
