Had a wine tasting session from 2-4pm at TCA with Mr Jeremy as the tutor~ Was doubted by some seniors that we were underage when we said we were first years.. HAHA.

An interesting session as we got to taste and smell the wine itself in class :) Mr Jeremy explained all about the fermentation process and the body of the wine to us, and it was familiar like a revision for me as i attended his lectures :D

He told us the basics, with the alcohol level (<11.5% = light, >13.5% = heavy) to the basic types of reds (Gamay/Beaujolais, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz/Syrah) and whites (Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Gewurzstaminer, Chardonnay), as well as the acidity and tannis. He also recommended us to try Riesling from US California, and Moscato D’Asti from Italy. Sounds nice :D
