The sensory abilities can be trained. This is done primarily through conscious taste of wine. Time and time again you should try the free wine, smell and taste to analyze and describe. The resulting experience should be replaced by anything in the world. Through exercises and references can also train nose and palate.
The train nose
With the help of olfactory references can refresh his memory of certain odors. To this end, there are several sets with the name “Le Nez du Vin”. These are available in several versions, depending on the number of flavors about 70 € to 300 €.
In these sets according to the manufacturer the most important are occurring in the wine aromas and preserved in small vials at any time smell. I have no experience with it, have read but also on the whole, no positive reviews for this set. The flavors are as described by critics as “artificial”. These sets are otherwise quite expensive.
Simpler and much cheaper it is with self-made References. I think that this smell more natural and therefore better.

Who wants to try to identify flavors blind, should the final mixture in each case still colored with food coloring.
Even easier is to realize in the future to go through life. Take every opportunity to realize the different spices in the household, fruits, vegetables, flowers, etc.! to smell and to try to memorize the smell. This trains the sense of smell and is used to describe wine flavors of great help.
