Red Wine Vocabulary | Wine Folly

Whats that got to do w a long wine list at the restaurant?

this has been genuinely helpful

Thank you!

It’s 9:45pm on a Thursday All that talk about delicious wine fruit high tanning and taste made me open a bottle of Pecchenino 2004 LE COSTE Barolo .. LOOK WHAT YOU MAKE ME DO!!!! 😆

Good girl

This video is brilliant. Thanks!!

Having a wine vocabulary is a seriously important process to a person's wine development. I've been drinking wine since I was 15, forty years ago. My parents were very liberal and had no hang ups about it. I have the Bacchus in me. My wine journey is almost entirely self taught but we're always learning. I've seen confident, well paid and powerful individuals reduced to jelly when asking for a wine recommendation in a wine store. (It's the same with whisky too.) They have no language to express themselves and find it very socially awkward.

Many of my friends and colleagues laugh at the perceived pretentiousness of tasting notes but appreciate that I understand wine at another level. In Britain you're a wine 'snob' if you like good wine. Unfortunately, that is a barrier that holds many people back from enjoying good wine. I'm not talking about Grand Cru stuff but a nice bottle of £15 red from the local supermarket. For me, enjoying wine is about enjoying life. Having a simple understanding of the basics is a solid foundation. Good video. WT

A mnemonic rule for the six traits: if you drink too much wine, you’ll get FAT ABS (Fruit quality, Acidity, Tannins, Alcohol, Body, Sweetness). Nice video!

Love the examples you gave because it helps actually tasting it to know the words to properly describe 👏🏾👏🏾

Unmolested?

appreciate your contribution to this world. I need to re-watch this every other month. Thank you!

awesome, both basic and advanced, wine lecturing. Thanks for sharing :)

Appreciate your books and video's they make Wine more fun and understandable

Ef that just gimme a bottle of Meiomi Merlot and like right now because my brain is turning into mush at this work place rn.

This is the best information on wine !! I have wine videos that I bought and there is no comparison to what I learned from just two episodes!

You're really a wonderful educator! Thank you for your work!

I think I experience overlap between acidity and tannin; the lemon versus the wet tea bags helps!

Amei estou aprendendo 🎉

I feel like red wine has more benefits to it than white. But i prefer white because its not as acidic and easier to drink.

Good, good form of explanation!!

Madeline has always been the best teacher for giving fun, simple, practical advice for how and why we experience wines the way we do. Please, if you have the chance, get into Wine Folly. So much good stuff.

I've become a bonafide Madeline superfan! Thanks for sharing. They are a tremendous help and they just happen to be delightful.

You can actually apply these terms to people. Sweet (outgoing) vs dry, friuty (idealistic) vs down-to-earth, tannic (takes time to adjust to) vs easy-going, alcoholic (strong) vs light (feeble), full-bodied (chubby) vs light-bodied (skinny). 😀

You're drunk

I would love to have a copy of your books! May i know what version or title that i can read to become a sommelier with a strong root knowledge from wine folly books?

What is your go to wine glass for most of the time?

Some women need makeup, you don't.

Love it

Am I the only one who thinks she might be a bit boozy here? :) Regardless very helpful.

I feel she is drunk, and might be intentional to teach in a more natural way to describe the wine descriptions . Appreciated 🙏🏾

Take an unmolesta— what?!

I need to rewatch this every few months. Thank you

I love wine🍷

I'm having a massive problem. I don't taste any of those things in my wines. I'm looking forward to trying many wines. The problem is, I never tasted any of those flavors from the wines I love to drink. The wines I'm interested in are those with big chewie wines. Normally those with the big meaty structures. I go for the big reds. Between 13.5% to15%. Is there a reason I'm missing those flavors?

Английский язык не знаю, но всё понимаю по языку жестов.
Очень полезная для меня, как винодела, информация.
I don't know English, but I understand everything by sign language.
Very useful information for me as a winemaker.

Thank you that was insightful.

If this video was titled wine 101 for beginners it would get the views it deserves! Well done so great with the examples!

Genius

Wine taste gross. Especially red ones.

We also produce wines in THAILAND, “New Latitude Wines” Here is PB Valley located only three hours drive North East of bustling mega city Bangkok

Nicely done!

A very tannic wine can be appropriate with a good steak & cheese.

I love this woman

Great video, love it 👍👏👏🍷🍇
