Length

Intermediate Tasting & Sensory

定义

How long the flavor persists on the palate after swallowing.

深入了解

Length is measured in caudalies (seconds). A wine with 8+ caudalies is considered long. The longest finishes in the world — 60+ seconds — come from wines like top Burgundy, Barolo, and aged Riesling. Length is one of the most reliable indicators of wine quality and is nearly impossible to fake through winemaking technique alone.
