We at The Gifted Palate are here to help you in a variety of services. First, and most important to us is to understand your palate and what style you like to consume. We will want to know what you have had and currently like. It is important to develop a price level that you are interested in. We follow up with education that will help in decision making. Remember, we are trying to provide the best possible experience that fits your palate for your budget.

Second, if you are looking for a bottle that is hard to find because of vintage or lack of production, let us try and find it through our contacts. Collectors will have a need to fill a spot in their cellar based on previous consumption or from knowledge from another collector. We will discuss how it fits with the collection, with your palate and what the expectations can be from the search.

Along with this service, we would love to help you set up a program to stock your cellar. You might have just bought a new cellar and want to fill it or are looking for a review of current holdings and what would be a natural fit to fill out the holes.

Tannins are a compound found in wine that give wine an astringent, mouth-drying effect.

Tannins in found in the skins, seeds, and stalks of grapes, and play a prominent role in the chemical composition of red wine.

 

Why age red wine - but not white?

Why age red wine, you ask? For the mystique of course! The aging of wine, typically red wine, to improve its quality, depth, and character is an element to wine that distinguishes it from other consumable goods/drinks.

The aging of wine also augments wine's cherished mystique.
