How we react to a bottle of wine is a very individual thing – some we like, some we don’t. Each of us has our favourite style, grape or type of wine but it is always interesting to find out what someone thinks about a bottle of wine, especially if it is one we haven’t tried before. Some wines are inexpensive, some are not and before risking a lot of money it is good to have an idea of what we are getting for our money.
I am fortunate to be a member of a number of wine groups and we get to taste lots of interesting wines that we might otherwise not come across. This section of the site is where I will share my opinions of a wine with you – and where you can share yours too if you wish. Remember these are only my opinions, yours may differ – and please feel free to say so!
There are some basic rules and guidelines for tasting wine and some things we look for that are not a matter of taste, but of fact. It is my intention to share those things in this part of the site as well so if you are new to wine and wine tasting this will be a good starting point!
