About me

I like wine. I love some wine. I enjoy drinking wine, having wine with food, and sharing and discussing wine with family, friends and my husband. But I know very little about wine. I have a terrible memory for which wines I have enjoyed and which I haven’t. I have been told (by my Father, who knows significantly more about wine than me) that I do not have a great palate, which is a great advantage to him, as he can serve the “cheapest plonk” when I am there for dinner and I’ll still be happy. My husband on the other hand has a great palate. On the one hand, he has a huge and very effective nose, and on the other has been a chef in some great restaurants for over 15 years, so has very refined tastebuds. So… my quest is to fine out more. To learn. To explore wine. To see if I can improve and refine my palate. To record my ‘walk through wines’ here in this blog, as a personal record for myself to refer back to, as well as to see if anyone else is interested in walking, and learning with me.
