Guide to Wine Podcast: Episode 51

Top 10 Most Common Wine Questions I’m Asked During a Wine Tasting

​Air Date: Wednesday, May 8th 2024

Listen to the Podcast!

As a wine educator I hold a lot of private tastings, virtually and in person, and I’ve noticed the same questions tend to pop up over and over. 

So, I thought it would be fun to answer the most common wine questions I’m asked because you may have some of these very same questions!

Some of the questions I’m asking in this episode include: the connection between smell, taste, and memory in wine perception; how I select the bottles of wine for my tastings; the significance of wine and food pairing; and my personal favorite and least favorite wine at the moment!

Ready to hear the most common questions I’m asked? If so, press play and listen in!
