Rep Lips and Wine Sips

Rep Lips and Wine Sips

Without lipstick many women can feel naked…

“She has a way with words, red lipstick and making an entrance”

Yet, lipstick stains on a wine glass are not a pretty sight. Then there is the debate of whether or not lipstick (and of course this will also be lipstick dependent), can affect the taste of the wine. I say this is lipstick dependant as women know certain lipsticks, lip glosses and tints will have a slight taste and/ or scent to them that you notice almost as soon as glide it across your lips or perse your lips together.

Then there’s the question of the chemicals used in the lipstick and whether these can have any affect, but let’s not get too scientifical as I wouldn’t be able to tell you if they would or not actually have any affect at all, or to which extent they do.

For these reasons you’ll see many female sommeliers will opt for naked lips when wine tasting to avoid both the unpleasant sight and potential affect it has when trying a new wine out.

What if you’re not tasting just enjoying wine? Perhaps you’re not at a formal tasting, but a relaxed dinner with friends where you’ll be drinking wine and would like to wear some lipstick on a night out. In this case there’s two options as I see it, 1. try to find a longer lasting or matte lipstick that is less likely to transfer onto the rim of the glass, and 2. lick the rim. Yep, I said it! If the rim of your wine glass is wet, lipsticks that are made of waxes and oils are less likely to transfer onto the surface. You might have a bit of fun doing this on the sly so that no one notices however!

Top 5 Things Women Should Avoid for A Wine Tasting

  1. Avoid wearing perfume
  2. Be careful what clothes you wear if you’ll be leaning forward spitting
  3. Avoid applying fragranced hand creams
  4. If you’re someone who seems ‘tasty’ to mosquitoes, avoid wearing any mosquito/ citronella wrist bands or spray on your wrists.
  5. Wear lipstick at your own peril 🙂

  • Some beautiful finds at the recent Koili Wine Festival and tasting some of Paphos’ lesser known wineries and gems of wines 🍷 

Continuing to surprise us and encourage our love for Cyprus Wines I had the pleasure to experience @nikodemoswinerypanayia wines (specifically their Xynisteri ‘Ayia Paraskevi’), Chryssorogiatissa Monastery, Theophanous Winery and @winerykalamos 

🍷 Wine of the festival: Allios from @winerykalamos. A new Xynisteri in the market, this delicate wine is aged for 4 months in Acacia oak barrels giving it a gorgeous gold tint, a touch of honey, tropical flavours and lychee 💛

6 Course Dinner @ @bistrot55 😍

From start to finish the food was incredible, the complexity of the flavours in every dish and the overall menu was perfectly engineered

With the choice of a carnivore, pescatarian and vegan menu in either 5 or 6 courses you’re sure to be catered for 

(The wine photographed was not included 😉 but a wine pairing option is available with your set course menu)

  • Let’s talk about flavour vs taste 🍷…

You may think but aren’t they’re the same? Though they are similar they’re not interchangeable.

Once you learn the difference of them, their distinct experiences, you’ll become much better at cooking as well as more in tune with what you like and dislike in wine.

So how do we define them?

Taste refers to the sense inside our mouth and on our tongue

Aroma occurs inside our noses and specifically refers to our sense of smell

Flavour is when taste and aromas combine.

  • A trip to Nicosia is not without a stop at @myvinemerchants 🍷 for an impromptu tasting of these two beautiful wines 🍷

A Naoussa Red 🇬🇷 and a divine Argentinian Blend 🇦🇷

First up 🍷… @ktima_voyatzi 2018 Xinomavro & Moschomavro blend, and my first time tasting a Moschomavro wine let alone this style of blend 👌a medium bodied bold blend, with complex tannins and medium high acidity this wine would be perfect with some cheese 🧀and game meats with its strawberry, cherry 🍒 and Blackcurrant flavours followed by earthy notes

@pyroswines 2014 Special Blend, only 12,000 bottles produced of this Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon & Malbec blend 🍷 deep purple in colour this wine has delicate tannins and a great mouthfeel with flavours of red fruits, blackberries, oak & a touch of chocolate too 🍫 a superb wine especially at its price range! This special blend is not yet available in Cyprus so watch this space (pop us a DM if you’d like to be one of the first to get your hands on a bottle)

  • For many years, I found out that trying to predict future wine 🍷 trends is that they are different all around the world 🌎...

There are many reasons why people choose wine 🍷 so differently to one another, namely they are geographical, economical and above all cultural. Moreover, the selection of wines offered by distributors is not the same in every country

From organic farming to orange wine, to the future of prosecco 🥂 we discuss what trends we can expect to see in the industry for 2022
