The Four S's of Wine
Follow Leslie Sbrocco's four simple steps to evaluate any wine:
- See - Hold the glass up at a slight angle and observe the wine's brilliance and color.
- Swirl - Hold the base firmly on the table and give it a good swirl. This gets oxygen to the wine and helps it to "open up."
- Smell - You're checking to make sure the wine has not "turned" or been stored improperly. Smell for odors reminiscent of musty cardboard or vinegar, which means the wine is flawed and should be replaced. Don't send back a wine just because you don't like it. If the wine smells off to you, have your server smell it and they should happily replace it - but generally the wine will be just fine.
- Sip - Take a sip and enjoy!
