I used to be a sommelier and i would really only use 'FRUITY' out of those 4 words to describe wines to clients.

I could be wrong and dont have the mag, but Ive gone with fruity - as Mellow isnt how you would describe any wine really more for coffee.

Bright - Ive never heard a wine described as bright.

And finally Smooth although wines can be smooth again its not a known term that would be used in describing taste.

Its up to yourselves but FRUITY is the only memory i have out of those 4 words in 2 years at college..(that was 20 years ago but i dont think things would change that much when describing wines)

Good luck and if you win - send me some karma please x

If no-one else manages to get this today, I will go to the little waitrose after work and see if i can get the mag.

Hope Barty who usually post the answer is ok :-)
