Types of Wines • Wine is fermented juice of grapes • Light beverage wines (White, Rose and Red) • Sparkling wines (Champagne) • Fortified wines (Sherry, Port and Madeira) • Have brandy or wine alcohol added • Aromatic wines (Vermouth and Aperitif) • Flavored with herbs, roots, flowers and barks
Wines • Varietal • Type of grape from which wines are made, and for which they are named • Vintage • Year in which a wine’s grapes were harvested
Light Table Wines • Red Wines • Made from red grapes • Coloring from grape skins • Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir • Rose • Actually a category of red • Remove skin early in fermentation
Types of Wines • White Wines • Made from white grapes • Age and mature faster than red wines • Chardonnay • Sauvignon Blanc • Pinot Blanc • Riesling • Chenin Blanc
Red Wine • Cabernet Sauvignon • Merlot • Pinot noir • Zinfandel
How Wine Is Made • Crushing • A mixture of grape pulp, skins, seeds and stems • Fermenting • A chemical process by which yeast acts on sugar to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide
How Wine Is Made • Racking • Maturing • Aging a wine • Filtering • Fining • Clarifying • Bottling
Relationship to Food • White Wines • Poultry, fish and egg entrees • Red Wines • Any game or red meat • Sparkling Wines • Any course, from dry to sweet • The heavier the food, the heavier the wine
Relationship to Food • Champagne can be served throughout a meal • When a dish is cooked with wine it is best served with that wine • Sweet wines should be served with foods that are not too sweet • Always follow guest preference and the GUEST is ALWAYS right!
Describing a Wine • Use of textures • Softness and smoothness • Richness and thickness • Correspond to touch and temperature • Use of flavors • Fruity, minty and herbal • Nutty, cheesy and smoky • Correspond to use of nose and tongue
New Traditions • Serve lighter wines before full-bodied ones • Pair light-bodied wines with lighter food and fuller-bodied wines with heavier, richer or flavorful ones • Match flavors
New Traditions • Delicately flavored foods that are poached or steamed should be paired with delicate wines • Match regional wines with regional foods • Soft cheese like Camembert and Brie pair well with a variety of red wines

Types of Beers • Lager • Clear, light bodied • Ale • Fuller bodied, more bitter • Stout • Dark ale, sweet, strong malt flavor • Pilsner • Style of beer brewing
Malt Beverages • Brewing Process • Water • Malt • Ground barley • Yeast • Fermenting agent • Hops
TheBrewingProcess • The brewing process begins with water. • Next, grain is added in the form of malt (barley that has been ground to a course grit). • The grain is germinated, producing an enzyme that converts starch into fermentable sugar. The yeast is the fermenting agent. • The malt then goes through a hopper into a mash tub, which is a large stainless steel or copper container. • Here the water and grains are mixed and heated. Chapter 10 - Beverages
TheBrewingProcess • The liquid is now called wort and is filtered through a mash filter or lauter tub. • This liquid then flows into a brewing kettle, where hops are added and the mixture is boiled for several hours. • The hop wort is filtered through the hop separator or hop jack and is pumped through a wort cooler flowing into a fermenting vat where pure-culture yeast is added for fermentation. • The brew is aged for a few days prior to being barreled for draught beer or pasteurized for bottled or canned beer.

Microbreweries • Microbreweries • Smaller breweries • Locally made and distributed • Rock Bottom • Karl Strauss • Sierra Nevada • Samuel Adams • Gordon Biersch • Brew Moon
Spirits • Spirits or Liquor • Liquid that has been fermented and distilled • Proof • Liquor’s alcohol content • In U.S. proof is twice the % of alcohol
