Personal Experience with Wine Thus Far in My Life - Noah McMurrer

 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.
