Why Wine Tastings Are So Popular | Preston Ridge Vineyard

Most people like the idea of sipping on a glass of fine wine and enjoying their evening or a warm and sunny day. However, most do not know how to differentiate between different wines or even what wine they like. Wine tastings offer a host of benefits to people who want to learn more about wines including:

 

• Immersive Experience: Tastings at a vineyard are much more immersive than buying a bottle of wine at your local liquor store. You get to see the fields where the grapes grow, see the methods and equipment used to create the wine, hear from the people who make the wine, and get to taste samples of many types of wines.

 

• Learn About Wine: You will receive an education about the process that goes into creating wine. It enables you to appreciate the drink you are enjoying and differentiate between wines.

 

• Learn About Food Pairings: All wines pair well with some foods. However, they do not pair well with many foods as well. Our vineyard will provide you with the knowledge of some foods that pair well with the different types of wines.

 

• Gain New Friends: You are bound to meet new people that have common interests as you when you go to a wine tasting. The fact that you and everyone else there are at a wine tasting gives you a shared connection. It is easy to bond with another person over a nice glass of wine.
