CorkTale | Wine Reviews

Wine - did you know? Your first taste of wine in any evening could be the wrong sip of wine.

Any time you enjoy a glass of wine, be aware of your first taste. Often times one will have had recently brushed their teeth in anticipation of having to speak softly with a softie from the opposite sex. Toothpaste residue, tobacco, coffee, and even your favorite steak au poivre, influence your tasting. Some of these flavors pair well with wines, others do not.

Ever tasted orange juice after brushing your teeth? The combination is very similar to tasting wine directly after doing the same. We all want to be hygenic, but let us not forget that our tastebuds need to be in their essence when tasting.

Enjoy a glass of wine, and while you're at it, enjoy a cork tale too.

cheers!
