Welcome to my new blog.
If you're here and wondering what a cork dork is, or even a sommelier, read on and you will learn.
I recently discovered that there are, in fact, wines out there that I like the taste of... specifically reds. I decided, then, to purchase a book about wines so I could learn everything I possibly could about wines. The book I bought: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Wine Basics.
First thing I learnt when I began reading is that there is a term for individuals who want to learn wine beyond what tastes good to them. They're called cork dorks. I've decided that I fall into this category. I'm about a third of the way through the book and have learned such a lot already.
Second, I already knew what a sommelier is, but for anyone who doesn't know, they are the individuals at restaurants who help you decide which bottle of wine will go best with your meal.
I decided to begin this diary to share what I learn with others, keep track of things I learn and also keep track of various wines I sample and truly enjoy.
