test what sort of wine you prefer

[Ken Gargett]

I did this silly quiz for fun – I was a bit scared that it would say I liked sauv blanc. I answered honestly. The result.

The quiz told me my preferred white is…

Champagne!

there is also a link to red wine as well.

I did the that one and got Burgundy. Bit spooky - both are pretty much spot on.

Now, if it says Rob likes pinot noir, I think we can discount it.

It said Champagne for me. I'll take that!
Ken ive been wondering lately why 9/10 wines i drink are red and basically only white with suitable food matches. I love white also but never open one at home to quaff. Maybe its the tannins, maybe its socialisation. Do you come across this with people? I take it you would be close to 50/50 due to being a professional? Sorry for thread hijack haha

dicko, i think that there is a perception that red is serious wine and white is a nice starter, but of course whites can be just as serious. also, reds are seen as a blokes' wine and whites for women. again, although there is probably a touch of truth in that, it is an extreme generalisation and not a rule.

as winter heads this way, you'll find it is even more weighted to reds!

Conclusion: it's an internet quiz.

Prosecco?! I'll sue!  

It's also good fun to choose your least favourite options and see if they come up with your least favourite wine.  Malbec

Champagne? Yeah, nah. Not my favourite. Prefer Riesling. Though, it did say I like Syrah, so got that one right.

I got Champagne and Napa Cabernet.

I do really enjoy Champagne but probably drink 10x the amount of plain old Chardonnay.  Probably because I have expensive taste in Champagne.

My tastes are pretty diverse in the red department, living in California I am no stranger to Napa Cabs but also enjoy reds from all over the world.  Big fan of Italian wine in general, Burgundy (including their whites), and I love a big inky Petit Syrah too.

Prosecco, Oregon Pinot.

The coffee question for reds is lacking - coffee with cream no sugar, thank you. So I don't know if that skewed the red result. Regardless, I do enjoy good prosecco, and Oregon pinot is very good - but very good is fairly pricey.

All good fun.

Fail. I don't like over the top wines loaded with oak

Quiz might be bugged...

I answered 'absolutely' to being a vanilla fan, and 'creamy gelato' as choice for dessert. 

My result was Unoaked Chardonnay - Before you claim you don't like Chardonnay, try one that is unoaked. It will have all the luscious fruit, but none of the creamy vanilla flavors your answers indicate you wouldn't enjoy.

Champagne and Burgundy. I don’t drink wine regularly, but I’ve always got more Pinot Noir's on hand than anything else, so Burgundy’s a good bet. But....champagne? I don’t think so.

[Schumi5]

Champagne and Right-Bank Bordeau for me. Also suggested, Brunello di Montalcino which is my absolute favourite so got to say pretty spot on for me. Surprisingly accurate actually.  Thanks for sharing the link!

Champagne and Left Bank Bordeaux (with a tip to Rioja). 

Expensive quiz.
