Wine Consumer Education: A New Curriculum for Evolving Expectations
Wine Education Outdated, outmoded and filled with errors Tim Hanni MW, CWE

Did the French match wine with food? “…the Lafite, Romanee, Hermitage, the Cote Rotie, or, if the GUESTS PREFER, the white wines of Bordeaux, the Sauternes…should be served” 9/25/2020 copyright Hanni. Co LLC 2014 6

Tasting: Using Best Practices of Professionals for Consumer Education Tim Gaiser, MS
Teaching tasting can be the most rewarding thing we do — And the most frustrating …
There are major disconnects in learning about wine
Wine is a fermented beverage that smells like other things
Wine has no inherent vocabulary
Our culture doesn’t place emphasis or value on olfactory memory
Little, if any, awareness that there’s a visual component to olfactory and taste memory
The expectation that learning to taste wine is somehow different from learning anything else
The Project : Modeling tasting strategies of top professionals
Project Genesis: 2009 Film Sessions
• • • Gillian Balance MS Matt Citriglia MS Brian Cronin MS Eric Entrikin MS Doug Frost MS MW Peter Granoff MS Evan Goldstein MS Yosh Han Gilian Handelman Alyssa Harrad • Tracy Kamens Ed.

• To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters • To replicate best practices to teach consumers more effectively • Ultimately: to improve how we teach tasting Goals for the Project
Best Practices: What do top tasters do?
They use a consistent starting sequence
They taste using a very focused state of concentration
They consistently use a tasting grid or method at the unconscious level
They have highly developed olfactory memory
Practically all* use imagebased memory for smell and taste
They’re able to keep a lot of sensory information in their field of awareness either simultaneously or in rapid sequence
They do so by using highly individual wine “maps” to internally represent wine
They calibrate the structural elements in wine precisely and consistently—and do so visually
They have internal processes or sequences to identify grapes, wines, regions, and vintages
For today: two strategies that map across to consumers … 9/25/2020
Glassware stance Strategy I
Tasting wine is like playing golf …
Consistency in how you approach the glass is vitally important 9/25/2020
• Being aware of: – The angle of the glass – Position of head and torso – Eye position – where do you look? – Eye focus – quality of gaze – Auditory prompt – self talk Glassware stance
• Knowing how to start is the most challenging thing for beginners • Teach them a consistent starting place with the glass and their eyes! Glassware Stance and beginners
STRATEGY II: THE BASIC SET
The Beginner’s Dilemma: “But it just smells like wine …”
Needed: Awareness that there is a visual component connected to smell and taste memory
Concept: Front Loading using the Basic Set
The 30 or so aromas found in over 80% of all wines Top tasters “own” these aromatics--and many more! What is the Basic Set?
• Front Loading: improving olfactory memory without physically tasting • Working with words and images to: – Make the image/olfactory connection – Consumers connect to their own life memories of list components Using the Basic Set
• Fruit: green apple, peach, lime, mango etc. • Non-fruit: rose, violet, mint, bell pepper, rosemary • Earth/mineral: chalk, wet stone, mushroom, forest floor • Oak influence: vanilla, chocolate, toast Basic Set examples
• • Images and words Images Words Contrastive analysis Using the Basic Set: four modules

Pre-Assignment Take the wine I assigned to you home. Observe it for several days in several glasses, at several temperatures, with a bite of food if you wish. In your own voice, write several paragraphs about the way it tastes, the texture, its personality. DO NOT RESEARCH THIS ON THE INTERNET— GO WITH YOUR GUT

A few notable thoughts on Wine Drawing… “As I look at my drawings afterwards, I see that they fully convey what I just tasted. ” Wolfgang Weber, Revel Wines “The exercise was a judgment relief…It didn’t occur to me to worry about what people thought. ” Elaine Chukan Brown, Hawk Wakawaka Wine Reviews “I’m so tied to words; this has been somewhat terrifying. ” Josh Greene, Wine & Spirits Magazine (Greene acknowledged afterwards that drawing the wines had been akin to speaking a different language, one that used both 9/25/2020 sides of the brain. )
In closing… Encourage people to communicate in as many ways as possible to take advantage of their real talents and to build the glue. 9/25/2020
