My personal experiences with wine so far have been quite minimal. I’ve had champagne at formal events and tried various wines during dinners with my parents, but I’ve never gone out of my way to explore the different tastes and aromas of wines on my own. Growing up, beer was the more common drink among my friends and family in social settings, which made it harder for me to step back and reflect on my own feelings about wine in general.
When it comes to my preferences for alcoholic beverages, I’ve always gravitated toward fruity and sweet flavors. This likely stems from my love of soda; the combination of carbonation and sweetness has always appealed to me. With beer, I tend to prefer IPAs, especially hazy ones, because of their fruity flavor. Similarly, I enjoy wines like Champagne and Prosecco due to their sweetness and carbonation, which align with my taste preferences.
Through this course, I hope to gain a deeper understanding of wine and its role in different cultures around the world. I’m particularly interested in how wine has shaped landscapes, both geographically and culturally, and the ways it has influenced those cultures over time. Additionally, I’m excited to explore the variations in taste of wine, depending on where they’re produced. The idea that no two wines are the same is fascinating to me, and I can’t wait to experience those differences firsthand.
