How To Get Your Wine Palate Trained from WineLibrary.TV

Posted by Wine Welfare | Filed under Education

wine-welfareHey Everyone,

So in lieu of posting a wine today, we thought we would try something a bit different. We want Wine Welfare to become a destination not only for great budget wine reviews, but for wine education as well.

Some of you might be more of the “grip it and rip it”-type who don’t care what you’re drinking, where it came from or why it tastes the way it does so long as it tastes good and is less than $20. We love that.

There are also some of you interested in learning more about the wines we are suggesting or just wine in general. Maybe you have always been curious to know more but never had the time. Maybe you don’t really know anything about wine and want to know how this delicious stuff is made and if they still stamp grapes with their feet in Italy. Or maybe you are a self-taught expert, in which case we would like your help.

The point is, learning about wine is fun, and it’s even more fun showing people everything about wine. Now, we do not promise to be experts and we are certainly not Sommeliers (that’s someone who actually went to classes to learn about wine). Those who have read our reviews know that we are bargain hunters, always on the look out for a great bottle for less. What we do promise to be is educational, entertaining and helpful when it comes to sharing what we know about wine, whether it be in the form of wine videos or simply an article explaining how a particular wine goes from vine to glass. Whatever we offer, we promise you will enjoy it.

So, to start off, we are going to introduce you all to probably the most well-known “Wine Guy” on the web, and possibly the planet. His name is Gary Vaynerchuk and we have been following him for years. He’s just an energetic, Jets-loving, wine geek who was able to build his parents small liquor store into one of the largest and most comprehensive wine outlets and online retail stores in the country: Wine Library. Gary has also done a daily wine show for the past 3 years, with nearly 700 episodes under his belt. He’s funny, irreverent, energetic and extremely interesting, and we are offering you one of his classic shows here.

So sit back with a glass of….what did we do last….oh yes, the Man Vintners Chenin Blanc, relax, and get ready to learn a little something about training your palate with Gary Vaynerchuk.

Also, remember to visit WineLibrary.com for great deals, and check out Gary’s daily wine video at WineLibrary.tv (after visiting WineWelfare.com, of course).

Cheers!
