Thanks, Di Bear. Great post. Once my house is renovated (by Christmas, for sure!) I'm going to set up a wine cellar in my basement. It'll be the right temp, and dark and out of the way. When I lived in France I had one, and I'd like to get back to it. I'm pretty good with varieties and such, but the chemistry is a mystery to me and I want to learn more about it.

I strongly recommend picking up a book by Jancis Robinson. I have a wine course book and a tasting book by her.
They're beautifully illustrated and well-written.

We're just beginning learning from the wine aromas kit from Le Nez du Vin. Being able to isolate aromas is really worthwhile in terms of figuring out food pairings, plus it's fun!
