what do wine tasters look for in a glass of wine? balance is probably the easiest answer. but balance of what with what? that is the tricky thing.to judge a wine，there are three basic senses that have to be employed：the sense of sight，the sense of smell，and the sense of taste. of these three，taste is by far the most complex，but sight and smell are powerful.sightso，take your glass and look at its colour. a white background in a bright room is necessary for a good view. all right，it is red or white or ros；but far more important is how clear and bright the colour is. a young wine that does not have a vibrant，shining colour is almost certainly bad. an old red wine will often have gradations(层次) of colour，from deep plumred to brickred；this is a sign of how it has been aged in wood. generally，if the colour looks healthy，then the wine is likely to be healthy；wine is，after all，a living and constantly evolving product of nature.smellthen take the glass，put it down on the table，and make a circular movement to spin the liquid around. this coats the sides of the glass in the wine and therefore allows the aromas(芳香) to come from a greater surface area when you take your fisrt deep sniff(嗅) at it. at this stage，it should tell you something about the grape varieties used in its makeup.a note about the shape of the glass should be made here. the tulip(郁金香) shape is the best；the aromas are concentrated at the top of the glass. this is the shape of the international standard tasting glass.tastefinally，sip(啜饮)the wine，but do not swallow it immediately. swirl it round the mouth and suck in air to oxygenate(氧化)it. this somewhat noisy process is vital to building up the tastes. here you can begin to judge that allimportant balance of the wine more closely. the colour should be right，the aromas should be right，but it is the taste that is the confirmation(证明) of its worth.the sense of taste can be felt at the front of the mouth，in the midpalate(上颚)，and as an aftertaste. typically，a young wine，red orwhite，will have a bright acidity，obvious berrysharp fruit，and finish with the midpalate. an older wine，a nineyearold bordeaux(波尔多葡萄酒)，for example，will have more complex tastes：layers of fruit，a long finish(回味) and round tastes if it has been in contact with young wood in its ageing process.having examined the wine，you can now get on and drink it. but try and remember your conclusions，for it is only by building up your own personal taste bank memory that you can progress as a wine taster. it is not difficult，and it is great fun. cheers！a wine to your tastepassage outlinesupporting detailsintroduction：what makes a good wineto judge a wine is to achieve a good _1_.of the three basic senses，_2_ is the most complex，although the other two are of great power.sight：observe the colour _3_ a white backgroundit is more important to observe the clearness and _4_ of the color of a wine，rather than only the color itself.an old wine has gradations of colour
