Making Sense of Wine Tasting
YOUR ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO ENJOYING WINE, NEW UPDATED EDITION
Alan Young, Foreword by Miguel Torres
Making Sense of Wine Tasting breaks new ground in the field of wine evaluation. Its completely new approach to the sensory appreciation and assessment of wine gives readers both information and practical skills and its straightforward presentation provides a welcome relief to those who find much that is written on the subject either mystifying or pretentious. The book is a serious but fun discussion about the nature and role of sight, smell, touch and taste in the evaluation of wine, combined with a considerable number of interesting practical exercises designed to improve sensory perception of all the senses used in wine judging. All the latest information on wine evaluation, from
electronic tongues and noses to such niceties as umami, is included in this edition. The emphasis in this book is on guiding wine lovers, both amateur and professional, towards a disciplined approach to improving their skills and recording their results.

“There is no mystique about this, regardless of what the snobs and poseurs say” —Alan Young
“
Brilliant...an underrated book from an Australian who has clearly given an exceptional amount of thought to the process of tasting wine. This classic has remained undiscovered by much of the
world’s wine press” —Robert Parker, Jr.
