Aromas in a glass

At wine tastings, I am often asked how to learn the art of recognizing the subtle aromas in wine. In my experience, the key is to consciously smell - not just the wine, but everything we encounter in everyday life. Whether cooking, shopping or simply enjoying a meal, it is helpful to consciously perceive the scents and store them in your memory like a small photo.

To help others better understand this fascinating world of aromas, I have launched a special project. In collaboration with my photographer Eva-Maria Mrazek, I have put common aromas found in wines into small glasses. These glasses are designed to give beginners a visual and olfactory reference point to help them recognize the scents in wine more easily.

The project aims to encourage people to sharpen their perception and develop more pleasure in wine tasting. Over time, you learn to discover the variety of flavors in different wines, and this training remains a valuable foundation.
