I DON’T UNDERSTAND WINE — WHERE DO I START?

-If wine has ever made you feel like you’re missing something, you’re not alone.

Most people assume they’re supposed to understand wine already.

They’re not.

Wine culture just makes it feel that way.

This is where that changes.

You don’t need to know anything

You don’t need vocabulary.
You don’t need experience.
You don’t need to “train your palate.”

You just need to drink wine and pay attention to what you like.

That’s it.

Why wine feels confusing

Wine is often over-complicated on purpose.

People talk about:

  • -tannins

  • -structure

  • -minerality

  • -aging potential

But none of that matters if you don’t even know what you enjoy yet.

The real starting point is simpler: Do you like this or not?

How my tastings help

In my Toronto home tastings, we remove the pressure completely.

We focus on:

  • -tasting without judgment

  • -understanding Canadian wine in plain language

  • -figuring out your preferences

  • -building confidence, not knowledge overload

This is especially important for Canadian wine, which is still unfamiliar to many people—even locals.

Food helps you learn faster

That’s why every tasting includes high-end cheese and charcuterie from local Canadian farms and artisans.

Food changes wine. That’s not theory—it’s something you experience at the table.
