Satisfy Your Wine Desires - Join a Wine Club

If you are a wine fanatic, you have many options to satisfy your

thirst. But before you choose an option, you should know how to

taste wine.





In order to do a proper wine tasting, you need to swish the wine

around your mouth. This helps get the most out of your taste

buds. Here are more tips in order to taste wine.





Look at the wine color. The more color a white wine has, the

more flavor it has and the older it is. You can approximate the

age of a red wine by titling the glass and looking at the edge

of the wine. The browner it is, the older it is.





Smell the wine by taking one deep whiff. After you do this you

want to think about the aroma.





When you taste the wine, you want to consider the first

impression, the actual taste once you swish it in your mouth,

and the after taste.





Now for the wine tasting options:





You could join a wine club. Wine clubs allow members to pay a

monthly fee in order to have a selection or two of wine

delivered to their home monthly.





The International Wine of the Month Club offers members

selections from two separate boutique vineyards along with a

newsletter. You have a choice in the type of membership you

select. You can receive two red wine selections, two white wine

selections, or one of each. Membership to the wine club starts

at $27.95 per month plus shipping and handling. The most

expensive membership option costs $63.95 per month plus shipping

and handling. The International Wine of the Month Club also

offers gift memberships.





The Cellars Wine Club is similar to the International Wine of

the Month Club in that you can receive two red wine selections,

two white wine selections, or one of each. However, The Cellars

Wine Club offers five different membership options. The premium

wine club, the west coast wine club, the all about reds wine

club, the platinum wine club and 90 plus points wine club. The

wine club memberships start at $36.95 with the most expensive

being $79.95





Perhaps a wine club isn't up your alley. Maybe a wine cellar is.

The idea wine cellar has a temperature of 50-55 degrees

Fahrenheit. The cellar should be moderately damp because this

helps keep the corks from drying out. Ultraviolet light destroys

wine so your wine cellar should be dark. Avoid putting your wine

cellar sheds or garages because you run the risk of freezing the

wine. Similarly, avoid the attic because the heat could get too

extreme. The best place for a wine cellar would be an under

stairs cupboard.





Maybe you just have a few bottles of wine you want to store and

display. A wine rack would be your best option. Wine racks come

in large sizes to place in your cellar but there are also

smaller wine racks that can sit on your kitchen or dining room

table. If you really want to get creative, there are wine racks

that are also bookends!





Next you might decide that you need a technique for comparing

wines. The Exploratorium describes a technique of comparing wine

aromas that is similar to the following:





First you will need these ingredients:





A tiny piece of bell pepper, one drop of butter, half teaspoon

of fresh citrus, linalool, a teaspoon of peach juice, a teaspoon

of pineapple juice and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. You take

these 7 ingredients and put each in its own wine glass with the

base wine. You cover the glass and label it with the standard.

Smell the first three wine separately. Then smell the standards

to see which terms describe which wines.
