Overview
As a wine drinker, you can learn as much or as little as you like, and there is nothing wrong either. It all comes down to what you want to get out of wine. For some of us, wine is a cultural culinary experience. For others, wine is something they drink, because they like it. One is not better than the other, and there exists a whole multitude of personalities and purposes in between. Whether you want to learn about where your favorite wines come from, or perhaps you want to explore new varietals and styles of wine, we are here to help.
We have a glossary of our own with helpful terms and names. Check back regularly, as the Wine Glossary will be continually updated.
Countries
Wine can be found all over the world, even in the places you’d least expect. Have you ever heard of Tunisian or Mississippi wine? The answer might be yes, but chances are, you have never had wine from these places and many others unless you’ve been. Below, I am going to provide general overviews for the many, many different wine-growing countries and regions of the world.
Grapes
If you are on this website, then you likely know where wine comes from. Yes, the answer is grapes. Everyone knows the basics. Many people even know much more. But then, there are grapes that not even the most studied, dedicated wine drinkers, know. Below, we are going to tell you about many of these and will include the aromas and tastes you can expect; the places where you will most likely find them; and even a few pairings.
