Wine tasting (often, in wine circles, simply tasting) is the sensory examination and evaluation of wine.
While the practice of wine tasting is as ancient as its production, a more formalized methodology has slowly become established from the 14th century onwards. Modern, professional wine tasters (such as sommeliers or buyers for retailers) use a constantly-evolving formal terminology which is used to describe the range of perceived flavors, aromas and general characteristics of a wine.
More informal, recreational tasting may use similar terminology, usually involving a much less analytical process for a more general, personal appreciation (Wikipedia).
The wine tasting is a part of the seminar intending to help the participants to close the gap “from the field to the table”.
