What We Love About Wine
by Eve Bushman
There are many dimensions to wines and the people that love them. Which ones we love, why we love them and why we return to our favorites time and time again. So, indulge me, while I help you to find the right words to describe what you happen to love about the unique elixir in your glass:
We love “Tasting” – Wine tasting allows us to experience a wide range of different wines and learn about them. We enjoy tasting with friends because we can not only share our passion – akin to watching a football game with other football fans – we can discuss what we like with our wine peers. If our friend is a winemaker it is a double pleasure as they are just as vested in our opinion as they are in making a great product.
