Today we visited the largest winery in Florida, Lakeridge Winery. Personally I’ve never been to a winery
or a wine tasting…it’s fun! The tour showed us the grape fields and how they create their wines. Following the tour we sampled a collection of their wines (everyone who goes on the tour recieves a free tasting). Most of their wines were sweet and light which I personally really enjoy; just add some chocolate dipped strawberries and I’ll be happy for a while.
The women who lead our tour gave us a 5 step process for tasting wines. Here they are in order:
1. See: Check out the wine’s coloring and texture
2. Swirl: Put the glass on a table and swirl the wine for the flavors to mix
3. Smell: It will get your tastebuds excited for what’s coming
4. Sip: Take at least two small sips to throughly enjoy the full flavor
5. Savor: Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
