Winemaker/Enologist Interview Question:

Tell me how important is tasting to the winemaking process?

Submitted by: Muhammad

I taste but at the end of the day, what am I gonna do with that? Once the fruit is in it's a little late. Smelling the ferments helps me identify if there's anything going off the rails. But other than that, I love to strap in and wait. Ask me again in a few years. I'll probably change my mind on this.
