About Me



Wino's Place Mission is to take the intimidation out of learning about, drinking and enjoying wine. It is a place where people can discuss wine from novices to experts.
There are no rules for what you enjoy, use your own words to describe your taste and experience. There is no definitive wine selection that should be paired with particular foods. The only thing to affect your choice of wine or pairing should be your taste, everybody's tastebuds are different! Otherwise, there would only be on type of wine, and only one winery. Remember cost is not always a factor in choosing a good wine.
We encourage you to visit Wineries and try different types of wine to experience and discover what you enjoy.
