put on a fun playlist like ABBA’s greatest hits and dance around the house like you’re at the most exclusive club in Winnipeg. Sandstorm and glow sticks after a few glasses of bubbly anyone?

Consider writing out a top ten list for 2021, focussing on the positives and highs of the year. Friends of ours have a lovely tradition of starting the new year off reading notes of gratitude they’ve been writing and collecting in a jar. Grab an empty wine bottle and start your own for 2022.

Have you ever brought wine as a and ended up sharing with everyone and you enjoyed 3.5 oz 😩. Don’t get me wrong, I love to share wine and often bring lots to the table but sometimes I get a little squirrely about it. Enter, “laundry room wine”. This bottle doesn’t go on the table with your second cousins and Uncle Al, this is the you stash in the laundry room and mention to a handful of people, the bottle you open and casually tuck on the bar and go back to again and again.

Gillian’s Laundry Room Wine
Les Coteaux Schisteaux Séguret
Côtes du Rhônes Villages
High altitude Grenache Noir and
22 months in oak
Exotic spice, cracked black pepper and vanilla. The palate is rich and jammy with integrated velvety tannin. Ripe but freshly balanced cherries, raspberry, flavours of coffee, smoke and char. Great structure, length and dry finish. 🛒 MLCC $28.99

Is it just me?
Am I the who stole Christmas?

WINE TASTING STEPS

LOOK
• looking at the wine
Becoming present with the wine in your glass, assessing colour/clarity/intensity, starting to make guesses about the and style, is why you look at your wine. Oh, and most importantly, it automatically makes you look like a wine expert (I know this from experience 🙃)

SMELL
•smell the
Be prepared to spend 2-4 minutes minimum on the nose. The nose is where you get to know the wine/grape variety/blend and the possible flavours the palate will produce. Did you know 90% of what you taste comes from your sense of smell? Often times aromas are tightly knit and require time to name and define. TAKE , YOUR , TIME. Certain aromas will help you make guesses about winemaking decisions, quality, aging and so much more.

TASTE
• taste the wine
Take a nice big sip of your wine, and chew, move the wine around your whole mouth. Aim for a seven-ten second taste before you finish your sip. Think about the flavours, texture, tannin, weight of the wine, acidity. Isolate a few aspects of the wine, write down your thoughts, then go back for more information 🕵️‍♀️

Et voila! This is what wine tasting is all about, using your and attaching vocabulary to describe your experience.
