9 Wine Terms that Everyone (Who Drinks) Should Know

9 Wine Terms that Everyone (Who Drinks) Should Know

October 7, 2016 By Rhino Wino Leave a Comment

Cheers! Lets get the skinny on wine. If you love wine, you’ll love to know the ins and outs of the wine. Are you a sweet, dry, tart wine drinker? What you may want to know about each individual tastes.

Key Takeaways:

  • The primary flavors in a fruit-forward wine are sweet fruits. So, whether it’s raspberries, blackberries, cherries, or gooseberries, the fruit flavors dominate the taste of the wine.
  • The antithesis of fruit-forward is earthy, a.k.a. savory. The primary flavors in an earthy wine are anything but sweet fruit.
  • A wine’s body refers to how much you feel the weight of the wine on your palate (in your mouth).

“The primary flavors in a fruit-forward wine are sweet fruits. So, whether it’s raspberries, blackberries, cherries, or gooseberries (ever try a gooseberry?), the fruit flavors dominate the taste of the wine.”
