GRAPE GUESSING, =Grape that can grow in a range of climates - Coggle…

- - - - FIRST FOUR
        
        Light hints of smoke
        
        Due to lees ageing.
        
        Apple blossom (“touch of blossom”)
        
        Medium body
        
        NB: High acidity and medium alcohol ALWAYS equals MEDIUM BODY
        
        Relatively neutral.
        
        Not well defined.
        
        Grapes: Chardonnay? Chenin blanc
      - Example 2
        
        WINE FIVE
        
        More tropical
        
        To detect flavours:
        
        If aromatic: Use the aromatic nose first.
        
        If non-aromatic, more neutral: Use the palate
        
        Non well defined flavours,
        
        Some residual sugar! The finish is then medium minus in this wine
      - Example 3
        
        Grenache
        
        The lack of the forest/earthy notes is pointing to Grenache
        
        Very good quality both of them
        
        PN
        
        High acidity, floral and low tannins (Grenache has medium tannins and acidity)
        
        Pale colour
        
        The presence of violet
        
        Suitability of ageing
        
        Lack of peppery notes
        
        Points rather to PN rather than Grenache
        
        Valpolicella
        More green, flavours due to early picking
      - Example 5
