Taste, as wine, can be described as the sensation of flavor that is experienced when consuming a beverage. It is a combination of smell, texture, and flavor that can be used to describe the overall experience of drinking a particular type of wine. The term 'SIP' is often used to describe the act of taking a small amount of a beverage into the mouth and allowing it to linger on the tongue before swallowing. This allows for the full range of flavors to be experienced and appreciated.
