A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Modeling Tasting Strategies of Top

Professionals

Project Genesis

2009 Film Sessions

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Goals for the Project

bull Ultimately to improve how we teach tasting

ndash Students learn to taste with more ease in a shorter period of time

ndash Students learn to taste using their own memories and internal maps

Findings from Project Sessions

Eye positions and patterns are vital to experienced tasters

The importance of a consistent starting place and tasting sequence

Olfactory MemorymdashImage Connection

There is an internal visual component to smelling and

tasting wine

Submodalities

The structure of internal images can be as important as the actual content

Existence of Internal Image Maps

Use of Visual Constructs as Aids for Calibrating Structural Elements

Visual confirmation for taste

Strategies

Part I Strategies for Beginners

Strategy I

Creating a Consistent Starting Point

Glassware Stance ampStarting Eye Position

Exercise I Glassware Stance

bull Criteria

ndashResting point

ndashGlass angle finding the sweet spot

ndashPassive vs active inhalation

Inhalation patternsangles ndash where are you smelling in the glass

Starting Eye Position

Importance of Eye Positionsand Patterns

Eye Accessing Cues

Eye Accessing Cues

Eye Accessing Cues

bull Visual memory up and to the left

bull Visual imagination up and to the right

bull Auditory memory lateral eye movements to the left

bull Auditory imagination lateral eye movements to the right

bull Internal dialogue down and to the left

bull Kinesthetic (either physical or emotional sensations) down and to the right

Importance of Starting Eye Position

bull Consistent start to the sequence of smellingand tasting wine

bull Focus ndash shutting the world out

bull Coupled with an auditory prompt

bull Literally knowing exactly HOW to start

Auditory Prompts

bull ldquoWhatrsquos thererdquo

bull ldquoWhat am I smellingrdquo

bull ldquoWhatrsquos in the glassrdquo

bull ldquoWhat kind of fruit (etc) is itrdquo

bull What is this on the end of my forkrdquo

Exercise II

Finding Your Starting Eye Position

Exercise

bull Start by looking down in front andor to the leftright

bull As you smell the wine move your eyes side to side slowly

bull Use your free hand to point EXACTLYwhere your eyes are looking

bull Find your zone - the place that feels the most comfortable WHILE you talk to yourself

Tips

bull Use SOFT eyes

bull Keep smelling the wine

bull Repetition practice going to your spot multipletimes

bull Finally play around with smelling the wine and looking at horizon level and abovemdash see what happens

Other Eye Positions and Patterns

bull Other eye positions used to access

ndash Internal imaging ldquofield rdquo for creating or comparing images (onersquos ldquoIMAX theaterrdquo)

ndashSide auditory memories about a wine

ndashUp using a tasting ldquogridrdquo as a guide

Strategy II

Olfactory Memory and Imaging

The Beginnerrsquos Dilemma

ldquoBut it just smells like wine helliprdquo

Needed Awareness

Awareness that there is usually an internal image connected to smell

andor taste memories

Challenge how to make the olfactory-image connection

Concept Front Loading

Using the Basic Set to bring awareness to the imageolfactory connection

AND improve onersquos olfactory memory

What is the Basic Set

The 25-30 most common aromasflavors in wine

Using the Basic Set

bull Working with words and images to

ndashMake the imageolfactory connection

ndashImprove memory of the list components

ndashUse sight and auditory to prompt personal memories

bull Multi- memory learning vs visual memory

Using contrast with olfactory memory as a tool for learning

Basic Set Common Fruit Aromas

bull Green apple

bull Red andor Golden Delicious apple

bull Pear

bull Lemon

bull Lime

bull Orange

bull Pineapple

bull Banana

Common Fruit Aromas ndash Cont

bull Peach

bull Apricot

bull Black cherry

bull Herbs rosemary

bull Lavender

bull Pepper white and black

Common Non-Fruit Aromas ndash Cont

bull Vanilla

bull Cinnamon

bull Cloves

bull Toast

bull Coffee

bull Chocolate

bull Chalk

bull Mushroom amp forest floor

Basic Set Modules

bull Module I words and images

bull Module II images

bull Module III words

bull Module IV contrastive analysis

Exercise III the Basic Set

I

Look at the image and say the word internally

II

Recall a time when you smelled andor tasted the

given fruit spice etc

III

In your mindrsquos ldquoeyerdquo reach out pick up a slice of the fruit (etc)

and take a bite of it hellip

IV

Make your experience of the fruit spice or other component as

complete and intense as possible down to the aromas flavors and

the texturemouthfeel

V

Intensify your experience of the memory by doing the following

a Make your images (or movie) largerb Make your images closerc Make the colors brighterd Make any sounds loudere Intensify any physicaltactile sensations

Exercise IV the Basic SetExperience the Following

Rewind Use Your Own Memories

Your memories of the following

bull Fruit

ndashLemon

ndashLime

ndashOrange

bull Non-Fruit

ndashRoses

ndashVanilla

ndashMushroomearth

Where are the images

Contrastive Analysis

Trying to make something into something else hellip

Exercise V Contrastive Analysis

bull Use your imagesmemories of the following components

bull Try to make one image the other

bull What happens

Lemon into mushroom

Lime into vanilla

Orange into rose

Now we can begin hellip

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

- Still image vs movie

Report

Part II Strategies for

More Advanced Tasters

Strategy IV The Image Map

Tasting Maps

bull All tasters in the project formed an internal map of the images of the aromas in a given wine

bull The image maps or grids differ--sometimes radically --from person to person

Examples of Project Taster Image Maps

Auditory Prompt ldquoWhatrsquos thererdquo

Tim Gaiser

Pattern from several wines

Auditory Prompt ldquoWhatrsquos thererdquo

Start

Comment tasting wine is a synesthetic experience

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Acidity

Alcohol

Tannin

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Acidity

A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Modeling Tasting Strategies of Top

Professionals

Project Genesis

2009 Film Sessions

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Goals for the Project

bull Ultimately to improve how we teach tasting

ndash Students learn to taste with more ease in a shorter period of time

ndash Students learn to taste using their own memories and internal maps

A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Modeling Tasting Strategies of Top

Professionals

Project Genesis

2009 Film Sessions

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Goals for the Project

bull Ultimately to improve how we teach tasting

ndash Students learn to taste with more ease in a shorter period of time

ndash Students learn to taste using their own memories and internal maps

Findings from Project Sessions

Eye positions and patterns are vital to experienced tasters

The importance of a consistent starting place and tasting sequence

Olfactory MemorymdashImage Connection

There is an internal visual component to smelling and

tasting wine

Submodalities

The structure of internal images can be as important as the actual content

Existence of Internal Image Maps

Use of Visual Constructs as Aids for Calibrating Structural Elements

Visual confirmation for taste

Exercise III the Basic Set

I

Look at the image and say the word internally

II

Recall a time when you smelled andor tasted the

given fruit spice etc

III

In your mindrsquos ldquoeyerdquo reach out pick up a slice of the fruit (etc)

and take a bite of it hellip

IV

Make your experience of the fruit spice or other component as

complete and intense as possible down to the aromas flavors and

the texturemouthfeel

V

Intensify your experience of the memory by doing the following

a Make your images (or movie) largerb Make your images closerc Make the colors brighterd Make any sounds loudere Intensify any physicaltactile sensations

Exercise IV the Basic SetExperience the Following

Rewind Use Your Own Memories

Your memories of the following

bull Fruit

ndashLemon

ndashLime

ndashOrange

bull Non-Fruit

ndashRoses

ndashVanilla

ndashMushroomearth

Now we can begin hellip

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

- Still image vs movie

Part II Strategies for

More Advanced Tasters

Strategy IV The Image Map

Tasting Maps

bull All tasters in the project formed an internal map of the images of the aromas in a given wine

bull The image maps or grids differ--sometimes radically --from person to person

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Acidity

Alcohol

Tannin

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

A thought about tasting hellip

Teaching tasting can be among the most rewarding things we do

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Professionals

Project Genesis

2009 Film Sessions

Goals for the Project

bull To deconstruct internal strategies of top tasters

bull To replicate and use the best strategies in order to teach more effectively

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

It can also be among the most frustrating things we do hellip

Why

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

The Project

Page 17: T Gaiser TEXSOM Tasting Seminar Notes

There are major disconnects in learning about wine

Wine is a liquid that smells and tastes like other things

Complexity

Wine has no inherent vocabulary

We use the language of seeing hearing and feeling to describe what

we smell and taste in wine

Our culture doesnrsquot place emphasis or value on olfactory memory

Little if any awareness that olfactory and taste memory are

also visual experiences internally

An expectation that learninghow to taste wine is somehow

different from learning anything else hellip

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

- Still image vs movie

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

More Advanced Tasters

Strategy IV The Image Map

Tasting Maps

bull All tasters in the project formed an internal map of the images of the aromas in a given wine

bull The image maps or grids differ--sometimes radically --from person to person

Comment tasting wine is a synesthetic experience

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Acidity

Alcohol

Tannin

Findings from Project Sessions

Eye positions and patterns are vital to experienced tasters

The importance of a consistent starting place and tasting sequence

Olfactory MemorymdashImage Connection

There is an internal visual component to smelling and

tasting wine

Submodalities

The structure of internal images can be as important as the actual content

Existence of Internal Image Maps

Use of Visual Constructs as Aids for Calibrating Structural Elements

Visual confirmation for taste

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Findings Olfactory Image Connection

All project tasters represented aromasin wine with internal images or a

combination of images and words

Both still images or movies

Images vary not only in content but structure size proximity color

brightness etc

There is an relationship to the intensity of the aroma and the

structure of the image

Exercise VI Making the Olfactory-Image Connection

ldquoSeeingrdquo whatrsquos in the glass

Instructions

I With your partner find at least 3 aromas in the glass (or more)

II As you ID an aroma be aware of the image of it in your mindrsquos eye

III Show your partner precisely where they are in your ldquomindrsquos eyerdquo

IV Partners keep track

Explorers Show Your Partners

- Proximity (how close or far away)- Location

- Size- Brightness

- Color vs black amp white- 2D vs 3D

- Still image vs movie

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise VI Review Your Image Map

1 Review your previous aromasimages

2 Find more if there

3 Questions

- What happens to the images once you create them

- Do they move

- Can you find them again if you need them

4 Map image location

Strategy V Submodalities

The Stuff of Thought and

the Fabric of Experience

What are Submodalities

bull Moda Greek term for the five senses

bull Modalities the inner representation of the five senses visual (V) auditory (A) kinesthetic (K) olfactory and gustatory

bull Submodalities the structural qualities that each internal modality can possess

Common Submodalities Visual

bull Black amp white or color

bull Proximity near or far

bull Location

bull Brightness

bull Location

bull Size of image

bull Three dimensional or flat image

bull Associated Dissociated

bull Focused or Defocused

bull Framed or Unframed

bull Movie or still image

bull If a Movie-FastNormalSlow

Driver Submodality

Auditory

bull Volume loud or soft

bull Distance near or far

bull Internal or external

bull Location

bull Stereo or mono

bull Fast or slow

bull Pitch high or low

bull Verbal or tonal

bull Rhythm

bull Clarity

bull Pauses

Kinesthetic

bull Intensity strong or weak

bull Area large vs small

bull Weight heavy or light

bull Location

bull Texture smooth rough or other

bull Constant or intermittent

bull Temperature hot or cold

bull Size

bull Shape

bull Pressure

bull Vibration

Exercise VII Submodalities ndashFrom Nose to Palate

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

bull 2D vs 3D

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low

ndash Tannin Barolo (Fernet Branca) for high vs Nouveau Beaujolais for low

Exercise XII calibrate the structural elements of the Terlano Lagrein

bull With your partner

bull Taste the wine

ndashNote how the flavors change from nose to palate ndash do the images change

ndashDoes the image structure change too

ndash Size brightness color proximity dimensionality

ndashDoes your map of the wine change as well

Exercise VIII Changing Submodalities

bull Choose one aromaflavor

bull Experiment with the following while smelling the wine

ndashSize smaller vs larger

ndashCloser vs farther away

ndashBrightness

ndashColor vs black and white

ndash2D vs 3D

bull How does each change affect the wine

bull Change one thing at a time Then Reset It

Submodalities Check List

bull Size smaller vs larger

bull Closer vs farther away

bull Brightness

bull Color vs black and white

Strategy VI Calibrating Structure with Visual Constructs

Tasters in the project use internal visual constructs or cues to calibrate the

structure of wine

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Uses different internal scales for structural elements

bull Acid yellow ruler about 12rdquo long with markers for low medium etc

ndash Tastes wine and then points to a mark on the ruler

bull Alcohol 24rdquo blue ruler with a ldquolevelrdquo-like bubble that moves to the appropriate mark

Structural Calibration Emily Wines

bull Tannin piece of wool stretched out thin at one end and much thicker and larger at the other

ndashTexture combined with amount of tannin

bull Finish image of the horizon

ndashThe longer the finish the farther down the horizon can be seen

Structural Calibration Tim Gaiser

bull All structural components calibrated with a 3-4rsquo ldquoslide rulerdquo-like device with a red button in the middle resting at ldquomediumrdquo

bull As I taste the wine the button moves until it matches the amount of acid alcohol etc Irsquom sensing on my palate

bull Internally I point to the marker on the ruler and say ldquoitrsquos medium-plusrdquo or whatever

bull If Irsquom not sure I bring the ruler in closer to me and more increments on the ruler appear

Exercise XI Installing Your Calibration Scale

bull With your partner

bull Create your scale use a ruler dial or whatever works best easiest ndash make it BIG

bull Locate ldquolowrdquo ldquomediumrdquo and ldquohighrdquo on the scale (also med- and med+)

bull Place calibration ldquobuttonrdquo or ldquomarkerrdquo etc at medium

Installation Cont

bull Calibrate for acidity alcohol tannin

bull Use EXTREMES

bull Examples

ndashAcidity lemon juice for high and water for low

ndashAlcohol port for high vs Moscato di Asti for low
