Wine styles explained
Learn the key differences between red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines—from color and aroma to body and sweetness.
Color tells a story
A wine’s color hints at its age, grape variety, and intensity. Lighter shades often suggest fresher, more delicate flavors, while deeper hues can mean richer fruit, more tannin, or oak aging. Swirl, observe, and let the glass speak before you even take a sip.
Tasting, simplified
With a few simple steps—look, swirl, smell, and sip—you can taste wine like a pro, not just drink it.
Hold the glass against a white background. Notice the shade (pale, deep, brick), clarity, and how the wine clings to the glass.
Gently swirl to expose more surface area. This releases aromas and softens harsh edges through oxygen.
Take a few short sniffs. Can you spot fruit (berry, citrus), floral, herbal, spicy, or toasty notes?
Think about sweetness, acidity, tannin (bitterness), body, and finish. Does the flavor disappear quickly or linger?
