Remember when slurping, sniffing loudly, and playing with your food were considered bad manners? It turns out that some of those habits are exactly what you need to taste wine like a pro.

In this video, Halleck Vineyard vintner Ross Halleck walks you through the techniques step-by-step, including why aerating the wine in your mouth, smelling deeply, and even taking a second sip are crucial to tasting.

Watch and refine your wine tasting skills.

Rich cherry and beading pomegranate are garnished with a touch of orange zest on the nose. The initial red fruit notes are nicely balanced by freshly-tilled earth, mace, and crackling leaves. The wine opens in the mouth with cherry compote, dried earth, bracing baking spice, and orange pekoe tea. The tea-like tannins cleanse the tongue and extend the finish for minutes--if one can wait that long before taking another sip.
