(Munchies.Vice) - We’ve all been there. The sommelier goes into full hyperbole mode, your eyes glaze over, and you end up with another bottle of “woody and vivacious” Rioja that makes your mouth sour. Or you ask the guy in the corner shop for vino advice and get ushered towards a two-for-one special on Jacob’s Creek.

But the days of picking dodgy bottles of plonk may finally be over. According to a California-based startup, we could be just one swab of saliva away from enjoying our dream glass of wine.

Vinome, which launched earlier this year, says it can find the perfect bottle by creating apersonalised taste profile based on your DNA.

The company analyses ten genetic markers related to taste and smell and asks customers questions on basic taste preferences. Vinome will then deliver you a perfectly matched bottle, sourced from a small winery in California.
