I agree with several comments here, this video was a fantastic starting place for people just starting to venture out into the world of wine. So many of the videos on here are just uninformative and a waste of time, but these 12 minutes are worth the watch.

Great video. I'm a winemaker and learned a few new things.

Thank you for sharing your great knowledge! So much fun to listen to you!

Very nice and useful analysis, thank you. I think many would also much appreciate if you could make video only on the eye, what we can tell by merely looking at a glass of wine

So informative. Thank you so much from the 2nd Napa of USA, Texas Hill Country. What is your most favorite wine & why? Peace from the Big Country of Texas.

Your video so informative! THANK YOU

Awesome video! Wondering why we smell the pepper or the raspberry or green apple etc if nothing is added to wine?

Thank u. This was insightful

Thanks for the insight

Cool video, these videos are so helpful for people

Thank you so much 😊

You should include Asia Minor and Persia to the old world. For instance grape variety Syrah is originated from the city and region Shiraz in İran.

Super interesting! Thanks!

Fantastic basic information! This is only my opinion, but it was mentioned here that salt is not a taste you experience in wines. I'm not saying he's wrong, I am simply of the opinion that the statement is an inaccuracy. As someone who has attended many wines tastings over the past 15 years, I have tasted a few where I could tell upon initial tasting that the wine came from a region near the ocean, because I could taste the salt in the wine instantly. I have spoken to wine makers from all over the world and they tell this is an actual thing. Wonder if anyone else has experienced this as well?

Thanks for your comment! So indeed there can be saline feels in certain wines, but this is more often iodine notes which you find influencing wines from near oceans/ seas. These salty impressions can also be the perception of minerality in other wines.

Sir my question is the fruit flavor which we are getting after taste of the wine how it's come? Are they seriously adding the fruit flavor or it's just coming naturally? Thank you!

Hi Neeraj! Thanks for your question. It's a question I get very often indeed... There is no flavour added to wine, just fermented grape juice. The flavours you get are in fact not tastes but smells... This happens when you eat too: you have the impression it's a taste when in fact this is your nose kind of smelling what's on your palate. With wine these smells can come either from the grape itself, or from during the fermentation process or they are developed when the wine is ageing. They are naturally occurring and do not come from anything that's added to the wine. I hope this makes sense?

If the fermentation prosseses must include sugar, how is dry farm wine made then??

love this video!!

I'm surprised that 'dry wine' has not been mentioned or explained, for a video on the basics of wine.

Didn't understand the concept of reserva, can you please explain what does that mean! Thank you!

when to use astringent vs tannic as a description in wine? Thank you.

@Intovino

5 жыл бұрын

Hi Raisin, thanks for your very good question! I will give you the easy version of the answer: Astringent is often used to describe a wine that is very tannic, so more than tannic. The reality is actually much more complicated, as tannin is a very complex subject and I don't want to bore you with a whole bunch of details. So, simply astringent is very tannic :)

Thank you very much, hope you didn't find my question to be an "idiot" hehe, can I follow up a question? I know a very very very very little about tannin, but is it also right that when you say tannic you just don't taste it? you also feel it in your mouth? and does it also have a role when a wine is light, medium or full body? Thank you.

Raisin Yao it is a very good question! There is no such thing as a stupid question! Tannin is a taste; it is the bitter taste that comes from the tannin which is a natural chemical compound that is found in some parts of the grape and the oak barrels. So strictly a taste that is detected by your taste buds.

Regarding the weight, tannin doesn’t really come into it. Weight is base on sweetness, alcohol, texture and flavours.

Shihab Munshi that’s going to need to be another video!

1. Grape Variety (type of grape) 2. Origin (where it is from) 3. Vintage (year in which grapes were used/ harvested to make the wine) 4. New World (Modern makers I.e Australia, NZ / Old (where wine comes from historically Europe/ Mediterranean) 5. Eye - 5 senses I.e sound of wine poured, sight looking at wine, smell of wine, taste, touch - eye is the look colours, contrast likely taste of wine, age ability. 6 Nose - smells/ aromas, young or old etc 7. Taste, sweet, sour (acidic, crisp, zingy) or bitter/ tannic only elements applicable to wine…. 8. Flavours - are actually picked up by smell / nose not taste 9. Weight - light, heavy, full, medium, determined by sweetness + alcohol / texture / flavours - light have delicate flavours, watery texture, low sweetness + alcohol … heavy = bold flavours, thick texture, higher alcohol volume + sweetness

Wines can be Salty and Umami

Bitter=Tannins????? You can't find salty taste in wine????? So why does white wines don't have tannins (unless they are oaked) and lot's and lot's of them have a bitter finish? Have you already tasted wines grown near the sea? Don't you find the saltiness? Your videos are not bad but if you are trying to teach something its important to do it right and to be accurate! Great video on the Malbec however! I liked that.

Hi Nuno, Thanks a mil for your comment. Just a quick answer on the above.. Teaching is very different depending on who you are teaching... My aim is not to be right or accurate, my aim is to help people understand. If I teach calculus to someone never exposed to it, I am not going to teahc them about negatives... I am not going to teach fractions of a whole number, decimals etc... I am going to teach them about the fun of playing with numbers. Then, when they are having great fun, I can add new principles. If I start with everything, then I make it inaccessible. Again, there are lots of things I explain to people that are not wholly accurate, and even at times actually wrong.. But if it helps them learn and have fun, then I feel I have shared my passion. By all means people can disagree... But (for me) the greatest teachers I had didn't tell me everything in one go, they told me just what I needed to make me curious to want to know more. Hope it makes sense! Santé Nuno!

​@@Intovino Hi Cyrus, I agree with you that one should approach wine you basic and simple concepts otherwise i can become annoying and demotivating for someone that is just starting. Explaining tannins it's quite often difficult, however they are mainly astringent, they also give a bitter sensation, but just as I was mentioning about white wines, this ones don't have perceptive tannin and quite often can have a bitter linger on the palate, so saying that tannin are bitter can create some confusion to beginners, rather they are astringent and cause a dry sensation on the palate, I always say that one should bite a grape seed when eating grapes, tannin's are all there and that's how they fell. You're content's are interesting, please don't take this as a negative comment. Cheers
