Hello! My name is Noah, and I am a senior at Virginia Tech. So far since I have turned 21 I have not had the opportunity to try many types of wine. However, that is why I am taking this course so that I can improve my wine palette and learn more about what wines I enjoy the most.
So far, I have just had a few red wines. The one I enjoy the most right now is probably a Red Moscato. It is just a cheap Barefoot brand that I grabbed at Kroger. There is a darker one from the Barefoot brand as well that I had but cannot remember the name of it. I enjoyed the sweeter one much more than the darker red wine, but then again I have only had it from that one brand so my palette is pretty bare.
I have had white wine, which was boxed Franzia. I would say that wine is probably the worst I have had, mainly because Franzia is pretty bad in itself. It was very bitter and was pretty unpleasant to drink. As a result, I am somewhat hesitant to try white wine but will try to test out a variety during this class.
