2. Five tips for buying red wine.
1, check the label on the back. First of all, the appearance of wine is not everything. Wine labels are sometimes very attractive, but you should still check the whole package. Reading labels back is a necessary job, and sometimes there are some useful information about fruits, tastes, aging process, importers and producing areas. If there are awards and comments, don't miss them. These are all proofs of good wine.
2. Feel the aroma. It is the basic way to taste wine by rotating the wine glass and deeply experiencing its aroma. See if there will be a beautiful hanging cup. Sometimes, liquid lines will be left on the glass and slowly flow into the glass along the glass wall. This hanging glass situation does not explain the quality of wine, but it is evidence of alcohol content. Next, smell it carefully. If it smells good, it should also taste good. Look for the smell of honey, pepper, apple or oak. Everyone can smell at least three kinds of fruits. Aroma is often the forerunner of taste, and taste is the proof of aroma on the tip of the tongue.
3. Taste it. Let the wine go around your tongue and see if you can taste blackberries, grapes and other fruits. If you can taste a variety of flavors, it means that this wine is really complicated. When these smells can stay on your tongue for a long time, so much the better. Common flavors are plum, blackberry, raspberry, citrus, melon and peach. The combination of these flavors and aftertaste in your mouth shows the impurity and balance of wine.

When you find something you love, don't give up, at least remember your favorite grape varieties. Black Pi Nuo in the United States and Black Pi Nuo in Burgundy are similar, but there are still great differences. Similarly, Silla in Dragon Valley and Silla in Australia also have interesting changes. So even the same grape will have different tastes in different places. It must be very interesting to try all these grape varieties and all the wine producing areas in the world to determine your favorite.
