This week our wine bar team had some training on our wines!
We like to schedule periodical small tastings for our service staff so they can keep well-informed about our wines. To keep it interesting, this week we used the Court of Master Sommeliers – Deductive Tasting Format which is divided up in to 6 sections
- Sight
- Nose
- Palate- Structure Elements
- Palate- Flavour Elements
- Initial Conclusion
- Final Conclusion
Why Use the Deductive Tasting Method?
- To improve your ability to taste and ability to accurately describe the characteristics of a wine
- Form valuable taste references (or markers) that lead to logical conclusions when tasting blind
- Increase your overall wine knowledge by tying theoretical knowledge to what you taste
- Improve your ability to sell wine by developing a customer friendly lexicon of descriptors
