Weekly Wine Quiz #40: Wine Basics 101 – Tannins

December 8, 2012 6 comments

It is Saturday, therefore it is time for the next wine quiz. And I have to honestly admit, my mind couldn’t settle on anything particular – “how about this? Nah… and what about that? Nope.. but then… Nope again”.

After not being able to resolve that in any reasonable amount of time, I have to proceed with something very plain and simple.

Today’s quiz relates to one of the basic characteristics of wine, tannins, and it consists of three questions:

Q1: What is tannins?

Q2: What are the sources of tannins in wine?

Q3: Name at least two other food items which cause effect similar to tannins in wine.

Have fun and good luck! Cheers!
