3 Must know tips for buying good wines
1° The Occasion/ Meal
The choice of a wine should always be based on the occasion when it will be served (a party, meeting, a dinner). Each occasion calls for a different wine. Those recommended for drinking on a hot day by the pool, for example, may not be the same suggested for a business Dinner. White, rosé and sparkling wines are very much associated with summer and celebrations. The reds widely consumed on cooler days and accompanied by heavier meals and desserts. If you intend to choose wine based on a dish, see the basic concepts of matching wine and food.
2° Register the Wines you Like
Whether photographing or taking notes on a notebook, it is worth keeping a record of the wines you drink and like most - and also those you have tasted and disliked. There are thousands of labels. (know how to read them) and the image helps a lot to remember the wine you enjoyed so much at that dinner. if you are still not sure what the wine is, ask a professional for help, this record will help you to quickly understand what you like to advise you better.
3° Get to know the main Grapes Varieties
When you drink a wine that you like, try to identify the grapes that makes that wine. So when you next choose a wine you can look for the blend that you like most. Portugal has at least 250 indigenous varieties, more than any other country and these are what make the wines so wonderfully different and interesting.
