Swirl the wine to the mouth of the glass and notice the bubbles it has. This shows how much alcohol is in the wine, the more bubbles the more alcohol it contains.

Wine should be smelt deeply so that your nose registers the smell of the wine. There are different types of aromas of wine like fruity, herbal, earthy woodsy and flowery.
The final step is to taste the wine. Make sure you do not swallow the wine quickly but let the wine set on the mouth and taste the various flavors in the wine.
