Tasting Languedoc - Advice Tasting
All you need to know about tasting

Wine tasting is easy, yet complicated!  Easy because it implies revelling in the simple pleasures of those delightful sensations; complicated because by appreciating the various shades of colour, aromas and tastes, we multiply the pleasures of tasting!  And there may be not doubt that due to their diversity, Languedoc AOC wines provide many an occasion for tasting, in order to discover the uniqueness of each and everyone.

Appreciating one wine and preferring another is already a first step in the art of tasting.  Indeed, tasting is primarily the ability to analyse one’s impressions and then to describe them using specific vocabulary.  It is also the ability to memorise the aromas and flavours of many different wines.  Wine-tasting, known as “sensorial analysis”, is essentially broken down into three different phases, each one evoking the three main senses: vision, smell and taste.
