Warm
Beginner Tasting & SensoryDéfinition
A wine with noticeable but not excessive alcohol, creating a warming sensation.
En Détail
Alcohol above 14% creates a warming, even hot sensation in the throat. At moderate levels, warmth adds richness and generosity. At excessive levels (15%+), it burns and unbalances the wine. Warm can also describe flavor profiles associated with hot climates — ripe fruit, spice, and softness.
