#### ## Tip 1 Red wines are usually served at room temperature where as white wine is served chilled. ![80558175_10218864125848650_6333226416674439168_n.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/smasssh/zpYDK5I8-80558175_10218864125848650_6333226416674439168_n.jpg) Red or white; when taking the first sip, let the wine linger on your taste buds. The first taste tells you a lot about the wine ... ![79532355_2501185493503501_7346345056464273408_o.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/smasssh/mJ23Fx4V-79532355_2501185493503501_7346345056464273408_o.jpg) but so does the aftertaste.
## Tip 2 In order to fully appreciate its full flavour red wine glasses have a distinctive bowl shape, which allows the wine to oxidize (breathe). Swirl the wine in the bowl and try to select all the aroma’s you can detect by ‘nosing’ the wine. ![hilarious_drunk_and_wasted_people_part_4_640_09.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/smasssh/J06wRguA-hilarious_drunk_and_wasted_people_part_4_640_09.jpg) This means you may place your nose just above the bowl, smell its aroma and enjoy.
## Tip 3 Remember everyone’s palate is different, and what you smell and taste might be completely different to someone else. But that’s perfectly normal. So don’t be afraid to tell people what you identified. ![hilarious_drunk_and_wasted_people_part_10_640_09.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/smasssh/tRbhzeLB-hilarious_drunk_and_wasted_people_part_10_640_09.jpg) You can smell and taste flavours such as cut grass, wet dog, floral, ruby etc…
