Good memory is a real plus in wine appreciation. Remembering and
recognizing certain sensory characteristics is crucial to judging wine. Of
course making tasting notes helps, but what good is building up a “wine
library” of characteristic smells and tastes in the brain if you can’t recall
them when desired? A good memory saves time, promotes better results and allows
the taster to sample and compare more products. To increase your memory in
general, and especially for wine, try shaking your brain cells up a bit. For
example, if you’re right-handed, try brushing your teeth with your left hand.
Instead of smelling coffee first thing in the morning, take a whiff of vanilla
extract. Simple exercises like this should help.
