If Testing Wine for Wine’s Sake
Be sure to have very simple foods available:
- 3-4 cheeses including a brie or goat cheese, a dry cheddar and a blue cheese, if you’re serving big, bad reds
- Water crackers or sliced baguette
- Dark chocolate
- Berries or grapes
- Water
Ideally, you want foods that will support and enhance the wine-tasting experience, not overtake it.
Beware of taste-bud fatigue. If you taste too much or too long, eventually your senses really can’t make any reasonable discernment.
