What's this about?

The fastest way for us to help you find the wines you'll love (and avoid the wines you won't ) is for you to spend 30 seconds to tell us about your wine tastes. We use these answers, together with your wine ratings to build a detailed profile of your personal tastes. We match your taste profile to our wines taste profile to find the wines that match. Even if it's a grape you don't know, from a place you don't know, made by a person you have never heard of. For example, if you tell us that you like Rioja, we have an Argentinean Malbec that you will adore. And a Spanish Grenache that will blow your socks off.

Red wine preferences

Do you like? Rating (rollover the stars to rate)
Big, full bodied red wines? The kind of wine that goes with a rich meaty stew? E.g. Aussie Shiraz.
Elegant restrained reds...e.g. Bordeaux and Burgundy.
Rioja? Warm, oaky mellow wines, great for sharing around a roaring fire?
Soft, fruity, juicy easy drinking reds. e.g. Chilean Merlot, or a Cote du Rhone?

White wine preferences

Do you like? Rating (rollover the stars to rate)
New Zealand Sauvignons and other fruity, refreshingly zingy whites?
Oaky, mellow fruity wines? Australian Chardonnay for example?
Fruity but DRY whites, perfect for an aperitif
Bone dry classics like Chablis?

Hello, just discovered the website and your group. Living in Tiverton, but work in Exeter. Weekend tastings could be fun.

West of England WSA - I am doing my WSET Intermediate course in January in Whitchurch, Bristol. Have any of you attended one of these courses? Anybody interested in doing it too? You need to have the Foundation certificate but it looks like fun as well as being educational :)

The wine from this vineyard/domaine is just wonderful. Be extravagant and try the Chateauneuf du pape!
