Red wines often become paler with age.

　　Red wines grown in warmer climates often have deeper color than those grown in cooler climates.

　　Next, turn the glass so that the wine moves around inside. This brings air into the wine, so that it gives off its smell. Smell the wine deeply. A wine's smell is actually telling more than its taste. To use a wine term, what can you learn about the wine from its “nose”？ Is the wine fruity? Does it smell like oak(橡树)? Do you smell grass or maybe honey? Maybe the smell is like butter or a mineral.

　　Now it is time to taste the wine. Move it around in your mouth. You may recognize some tastes because you identified them while smelling the wine.

　　You can also consider the wine's sweetness and its acidity(酸性). You may note the taste of tannin. Tannins are chemicals that are found in the skin and seeds of grapes. Tannins taste bitter and seem to coat your mouth. To make a good wine requires a balance between sugar, acidity, tannin and alcohol.

　　Professional wine tasters have many special words to describe wines. Some adjectives might be surprising. For example, a wine that feels smooth might be described as “velvety” or “silky”. A wine that does not have enough acidity is “flabby” or “fat”. A wine with a strong tannin

　　taste could be “chewy”．
