Adjectives to Pair with Your Wine

Adjectives to Pair with Your Wine For the past few weeks, Teauna has been teaching  a student who is a boutique wine producer in Italy. Shes getting ready to come to the U.S. and begin selling her wines, so the topic of conversation in their classes has been, big surprise, wine.Talking about wine is interesting, because it brings up a lot of adjectives that are used in novel ways. I was thinking about that this week, and remembered the comedy Sideways, about two men on a road trip in Californias wine country.The clip below isnt funny, but is uses some great adjectives to talk about wine. If you want a funnier clip from the movie, check this one out.Watch the video below, then try to answer the listening questions. Answer the questions in comments and we will give corrections.What adjectives does he used to describe the Pinot grape?
