tasting, but now it is the time to the most important sense,the
taste.

A number of elements in a wine, are detected in the mouth. Diferent aspects of the wine are detected by diferents parts of the mouth and tongue. Here, when we try a wine, we can detect more flavours than in the nose
Sweetness is one of the five basic tastes and is universally regarded as a pleasurable experience, except in excess When the wine is placed in the mouth, the tip of the tongue will react if it is sweet; this explains why sweetness is often the first thing to become apparent because the tongue is the first of the mouth.
