Habitare Wine Piazza x Hartwall
At the Wine Piazza, in keeping with Habitare’s theme, you can select your wine through the sense of touch.
Choosing wine by touch is a fascinating and sensual approach that combines intuition with physical interaction. While taste and aroma are central to evaluating wine, touch can also offer subtle clues to its character.
At the Habitare Wine Piazza x Hartwall wine bar, you can choose your wine from four different materials.
Chiffon
Chiffon is a light, translucent, and soft fabric. It evokes impressions of elegance, delicacy, and subtlety. When the touch of chiffon guides your choice of wine, the selection becomes an experience of the senses. Though delicate, chiffon moves gracefully and reveals form. Likewise, a wine may appear gentle yet unveil layers and depth upon tasting.
Pale Gravel
The feel of pale gravel conjures coolness and the minerality of the earth. When this tactile sensation is linked to the description of wine, it creates a compelling and multidimensional image. A wine that feels cool and mineral on the palate can be likened to the touch of pale gravel – pure, bright, and full of tension.
Flowers
Touching flowers in the act of choosing wine becomes a visual metaphor, expressing the wine’s aroma, atmosphere, and even its personality. Flowers carry rich symbolism, and when used to describe wine, they open up an entirely new language of understanding. Is your floral persona today blossoming, sparkling, sensual, and delicate? Or dramatic, deep, and mysterious?
Velvet
The touch of velvet in wine selection is like a promise of softness, depth, and elegance. To describe a wine through velvet is to allude to its smooth mouthfeel, fullness, and refined structure. It is a metaphor that stirs the senses – as though the wine caressed the palate as gently as velvet on the skin.
