Wine Geek test
February 25th, 2013 | Oddballs
How do you know if you’re becoming a Wine Geek? Here are a few of the tell tale signs:
1). You worry that you’ve left a bottle of wine in the car with the windows closed
2). You’re really upset that you weren’t born in the year of a great vintage
3). You’re convinced that you’re suffering from compulsive glass swirling syndrome
4). You’ve installed humidity control in your basement
5). You keep separate wine stocks for ‘normal’ and ‘knowledgeable’ dinner guests
6). You don’t consider a red wine great unless you can ‘taste’ the vineyard in the sediment
7). You can recite the names of all the 1st growth Bordeaux wines but can’t remember your own home phone number
8). You can happily consume Champagne at any time of day and for absolutely any reason
How many of these symptoms do you recognise?
