What Time of Day Should You Really Be Drinking Wine🍷

The Answer Might Surprise You ⏰🍇

Most people think wine is just for evenings—but what if we told you that there’s actually an ideal time of day to taste wine at its best?

(Hint: It’s not after dinner.)

🕑 The Best Time to Taste Wine Is…

Between 11am and 1pm

Yep, you read that right.

Midday is when your taste buds are most alert and your palate is cleanest.

No strong coffee, lunch, or lingering toothpaste messing with your sense of flavor.

✨ Why It Works:

Your senses are sharper.

You’re not influenced by food or fatigue.

The wine shows off its truest character.

🍷 Morning Wine: Not Just for Winemakers

Professional tasters and sommeliers often sample wines in the late morning for this exact reason.

And you don’t need to spit like the pros (unless you want to)—you can enjoy it!

💡 Want to Try It?

Set up a mini tasting this weekend before lunch.

Just one or two small pours:

A crisp white or sparkling to start

A light red or rosé as a follow-up

Then see how different those same wines taste later that night.

You’ll be shocked at the difference!

⚠️ Not for Everyone

Obviously, if you’ve got work or errands, maybe save this for a day off—but when the schedule allows, give it a shot.

It’s a fun way to experience wine like a pro!

Your Turn!

Have you ever tried wine during the day and noticed it tasted better?

Or do you have a favorite “wine o’clock” time that always hits right?
