Taste what you want to. You’re not going to offend the tasting room
staff by not tasting a specific wine, or wine category. For example,
you may only like red wines, and so you can tell the tasting room staff
that you’ll only be tasting the reds. Or you want to skip the lighter
whites, such as Pinot Gris, and only taste their Chardonnay. This is
important especially if you have a big day of tasting planned. You can
either try a sip of each wine and spit or just try what you like so your
palate can be sharp enough for the last winery of the day. Remember that
you don’t need to drink every drop from each glass; it’s OK to pour out
unwanted wine, and all tasting rooms will have pour buckets for you.
