How To Grade Wine

Grading wine requires unique insight + knowledge + interpretation skills. It's a gift. You start with:

1. Appearance

2. Color

3. Aroma

4. Bouquet

5. Volatile Acidity

6. Total Acidity

7. Sugar

8. Flavor

9. Body

10. Astringency

11. General Quality

It's amazing to note the similarities to colored stone + diamond grading. I mean the concept. I think it's fun experimenting with the idea (s) because to me there is a link + I like to synthesize different concepts, especially when they are subjective because you create a unique language to communicate with people.
