Welcome to our Blind Wine Tasting series, "Vino Blind!" In our 6th episode, I've got a white wine in front of me, and I have no idea what it is. I'll use sight, smell, and taste to try and guess the grape, the place, the quality, and how old the wine is. I'll use the same principles used in WSET or The Court of Master Sommeliers, so this video will be very helpful if you're studying for any exams. It's also just a good exercise to help you learn how to taste wine better. Will I get it right? Watch to find out!

I actually have this bottle and have not tried it yet. I can’t wait to open it, re-watch this and taste along (once dry Jan is over😢)
Not sure how I missed this but awesome job and another amazing episode!
I love your blind tastings. I try and use your observations when tasting blind or not.
Glad we can help!
Love me some Albarino! Great vid as always, love these blind tastings
Love these wine tasting episodes...
Fascinating. What an interesting video. Thank you team V is for Vino.
good job. enjoyed.
Amazing!! Love watching the process of figuring it out! Thanks for another great video!!
Thanks Anne!
We carry this wine at our wine shop, Mt. Rose Wine Co., in Reno, NV. Thanks for sharing a blind tasting process.
Nice, its a good wine!
The acidity should be a big give away to pick Albarino over Pinot Gris. Alsatian PG often has residual sugar. Friuli examples dry but always have a copper colour.
Good tips!
Super nice video. I hope we see more of those in the channel
A few more episodes to come! We filmed 9 total, and this is 6 of 9.
Impresive skills, this time you talk yourself into the correct answer. When there's no instant gut feeling, trust in deductive process seems to be key😮
100%
I picked Albariño too! I'm an Albariño fan and have enjoyed this particular wine. Keep up the good work!
Nice work!!
Do you specify the range of white varieties that can be presented to you as the list you use to decide and eliminate from could be much so much longer making it an almost impossible task. Varieties such as Fiano,Vermentino,Pecorino,Semillon and Assyrtiko being just some I can think of. Excellent show. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and make your next trip Australia.
Hello! Yes, we use the grapes and places that are possibilities for the Court of Masters Advanced testing, which is very similar to the WSET list as well. The full list is in the description if you'd like to see!
Greetings from Japan!
I just saw all of your blind tasting videos and I really like that you go step by step for beginners like me.
Looking forward to seeing a new one!
Thank you! Another one coming out next week. By the way my wife and I went to Japan in November and it was possibly our favorite trip we've ever taken!
@@visforvino ill check it out for sure😁 Ohhh! Come visit again! I’ll be your personal tour guide and show you guys nice local sake breweries, whiskey distilleries n ofc wineries 😋
I was going for Albariño too, but I was so nervous that I actually let out a yell on the reveal! LMBO!
haha confidence, you got it!
Amazing video man. I hope you'd do a Vino Blind every couple weeks
Another one coming soon!
@@visforvino yes!!
Too much body for a Grüner Veltliner ?????? - I think you should take a lesson on GV - to learn, that the best GV from Austria are far away from medium body and pepper ;-)
Knoll, FX Pichler, Alzinger, Prager, Bründlmayer, just to drop some names
I love those producers! Would you not describe those as medium minus body with either white pepper or vegetal notes? How would you eliminate Gruner from contention in a blind tasting?
I think it depends on the ripeness of the grapes, the terroir and the ageing process. A dry Veltliner in the higher ripeness range has different aromas than a light steel tank wine.
The pepper will become less, other aromes take over.
As an example, here is James S's description of a Veltliner in the higher maturity range:
--
That describes GV good !
Blind tasting is not black or white, if the wines do not show the aroma spectrum of the textbook alone, you have to have experience - I have been working on this for 30 years with a focus on GV as I live in Austria, and fail again and again ;-)
You do a great job, love your Videos....
On the nose: yea nothing yet maybe a burgundy, maybe Albariño
Palat: Yea, I am considering Chablis or Albariño .MAYBE Pinot Grigio
Initial conclusion: Old world. Cool climate ....Chablis or Rias baixas Albariño
Pausing video ; Final....Hmmm ughhhhhhhh OK .......Rias Baixas Albariño 2019 Vintage
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAA one year off though but it's ok! Maybe I do know more than I think!! :)
NICE!!! You nailed it.
