@stephdrinkswine some say you should only swirl red wine because red wine is produced with the grape skin on, which adds more tannins to the wine requiring more oxidation to soften the tannins and achieve a more pleasant drinking experience… while this is true, it doesn’t mean white wine can’t benefit from a good swirl too! 👍🏻 #fyp #wine #asmr #whitewine #howto

@somm_vivant This is probably the thing we consider least when choosing wine and it really is the MOST important. A great wine in the wrong situation is not a great wine. Just like you might not wear a cocktail dress to a pool party, the people and the occasion often matter most when you’re picking a wine. Same goes for the stories behind the wine. If you can find a way to link the wine to the people, not only will the bottle be more memorable, so will the memory in general. Our senses are all linked so the stronger the emotion we can tie to it, the longer it will last. These wines from @Harvest were the perfect choice and my friends are still messaging me about them! I’ve talked about them on here before but if you have questions put them in the comments! #winetok #howto #winepairing
