Discover Your Wine Personality for Better Buys
Aug 22, 2014
(ABCNews) - Let’s get real: it can be all too easy to grab whatever wine is available (and cheapest) at your local store. But the truth is you can probably do much better. There’s no reason to settle when it comes to wine, because the affordable options are endless, and you can end up finding something you really love.
Except you might have no clue where to start. That’s where Brian Smith comes in. Smith is a winemaker, sommelier and the CEO of Club W, an online personalized wine club. New Club W members take a “palate profile” quiz to help the service determine which wines they should send to each person every month. Questions like how you take your coffee and if you prefer fresh or cooked fruit help Smith determine a person’s wine palate.
We spoke with Smith to break down each quiz question to help you figure out your drinking tastes, and learn about some wines you love in the process. Click through to discover your wine personality.
Coffee
How do you like your coffee?
Black: You’ll prefer drier, more structural wins with high tannins, which is an element that makes wine taste dry.
Recommendation: Alcalá Monastrell
With milk: You use milk to soften the coffee, adding more texture and weight, so try a syrah that feels the same way.
Recommendation: 9 Sisters Syrah
Frappuccino, baby: Really rich, sweet coffee drinks translate to juicy, sweet red wines with soft tannins.
Recommendation: Wonderful Wine Co. Red Blend
