The conditions for conducting organoleptic evaluation should be in accordance with ISO / DIS Standard 8589.
Samples are evaluated prepared at appropriate temperatures, as follows:
- sparkling, semi-sparkling and aerated wines from 8 to 10 ° C,
- white and rosé wines: 10 to 12 ° C,
- predicate, special wines and fruit wines from 10 to 14 ° C,
- red wines from 15 to 18 ° C.
according to the classification, in order to be a wine,
it must receive at least 65 points in the evaluation,
it must not be oxidized or spoiled
test is scored in 10 categories
if have 65+ it can get a license to sell as a wine
Stolno vino = Table wine 65-72 points
these are cheap wines that you can buy anywhere and for only $2 bottle
They are usually served in 2dl glasses and mixed with water
on land it is customary to mix with carbonate mineral water (with bubbles)
and that combination is called "Gemist"
on the coast it is customary to mix such wine with plain water, so it is called "Bevanda"
as you can see the wine that got 65 points can hardly be called wine, but the one that has 71 points is already a completely different story
classification is very strict, so a lot of wine falls for many reasons
Kvalitetno vino = quality wine 72-82 points
these are the wines you will find in restaurants
any you choose will not go wrong
the price of these wines is not below $10 per bottle
Vrhunsko vino - Top quality / Champions wine 82+ points
it is the pride of every winemaker
when you get this ranking you know you are doing a great job (of course, weather conditions in year affect this)
these wines fetch incredible prices, from $20 and for 86+ points only the sky is the limit for price
the next classification is by the amount of sugar
sweet wines
semi-sweet / semi-dry wines
dry wine
what is being evaluated?
APPEARANCE = Clarity / color (two ratings)
ODOR = Purity / Intensity / Quality
TASTE = Purity / Intensity / Durability / Quality
Harmony / General impression
minimum score is 65 for wine max 100
Hvala :)
