What is a wine taste profile?
You are standing in front of the shelf. The label mentions a slope, a vintage and a word you half remember from a dinner. You want a bottle that fits what you actually like, and what is on the table tonight. That is what this page is for.
A taste profile is a short, personal description of how you experience wine. Not a score and not an exam. OnlyWines records where you sit on three axes: light or firm, round or fresh, fruity or spicy. Notes, grapes and bottles that fit come with it.
Why a label so often lets you down
Wine copy is written for people who already know what tannin is. If you do not, or if you do and you have had enough of it, the shelf does not help you choose. Waine does. He is OnlyWines' virtual sommelier, and he does not pull a face if you like sweet white wine.
Five questions, in the conversation below
The taste test happens in the chat with Waine. He does not ask for a wine colour. He asks what you wear, where you order your first drink, what you eat after a long week, which scent appeals to you, and which character fits you at the table. In between you can also ask him something, for example the difference between a Chardonnay from France and one from Chile.
From profile to bottle, with merchants in the Netherlands
Afterwards you see your taste profile: three axes, what your answers say about you, and grapes that fit. Plus three wine matches. The fuller report goes to your inbox. The bottles come from independent wine merchants in the Netherlands. No spam, only wine that fits your taste.
