Frequently Asked Questions
Every year, First Pour Wine gets a host of interesting question, here’s some of the most frequent:
Wine Tasting Order – By far the most common questions were about wine tasting order, including a number of questions about very specific wines like Rouge Moelleux (which I’m still remembering how to spell). Our page still handles most of these questions, so if you have a wine tasting order question, check out the page.

5 Adjectives to Describe Cabernet Sauvignon – Five words would be challenging, and a little dependent on what climate, but to be general: Full-bodied, Blackberry, Black Currant, Mint, Cedar. If you’d like to pick up a few more words, check out the Six Noble Grapes
Making Sangria with Arbor Mist – Nothing would prevent you from doing this, especially if you like Arbor Mist. To make Sangria, take brandy, orange liqueur, and fruit and add it to the Arbor Mist. Check out our quick refresher on how to make Sangria.
