Why, hello!
Your purple teeth and red tongue tell us that you have been uncorking your way through the wine cellar, familiarizing yourself with the wide wide world of wine. Do you think you have what it takes to become a Master Sommelier? Few wine aficionados can earn this lofty distinction – ostensibly a royal title befit for a noble or lord – and only the most dedicated and knowledgeable of grape gurus can detect the subtle notes and nuances that differentiate varieties of wine.
While the layman might be able to differentiate between a red and a white – do they know where Châteauneuf-du-Pape is grown?
Think your taste buds are up to the test? Take this quiz and prove to the world that you know your wine. Perhaps you were grown in the same terroir as some of the most renowned grapes. Grab your wine opener and get popping! Pour a taste, swirl it around, inhale, repeat, and share your results!
Don’t forget to tag a friend who will be happy to finish off your bottle of Pinot! If you miss a few answers, make sure to go back and see the correct ones!
