Website
BetterTastingWine.com hosts a non-profit website. We offer free wine lessons and useful tips to help our community better understand and enjoy wines.
Content Design:
There are a lot of information, overwhelming actually, when it comes to wine. Instead of telling you everything, we focus on the practical, the useful and the fun. Thus the design and structure of our website, anchoring on PRACTICAL wine lessons, USEFUL wine knowledge, and FUN download.
Through the years, we have added a new section on interactive tasting exercise as we feel tasting is such a critical part of the learning experience. Upon requests, we have also added sections to share exciting producers and inspiring wine travel and news.
Friends and subscribers may know, our website content is being constantly updated. We are currently in the Phase 3 design. Should you have any feedback or suggestion, do email us.
Content Contributors:
A group of wine lovers, educators, collectors, writers contribute to this website, particularly in the expert tips section.
Message from the key editor:
A passionate wine lover, a daring wine explorer, a certified wine educator (CSW, WSET Diploma), a professional wine critic... but at the heart of it, I am just another wine student like you. We can always learn as long as we keep an open mind.
I am grateful to be surrounded by wine loving friends who share both fine and odd bottles with me. These wine explorations constantly remind me how big the wine world is and how different each of our palate preference can be. Also thanks to some of them for adding color and content to this website.
We will stop learning when we stop seeing. So let's forget that we are wine novice or wine expert... don't let brands and past experiences influence our tasting. Each bottle is unique. Give our glasses our undivided attention and an unbiased judgement... and let's continue letting the world of wine surprises us.
Thank you for exploring the world of wine with us,
Community & Charity
We have two incentives for developing this website: help our community better appreciate wine and helping our favorite charitable organizations.
You may notice advertisements placed throughout the website. The net proceeds (netting the cost of website development and maintenance) go into charities such as Save The Children and Oxfam.
If you find this website useful or find the incentives noble, tell your friends and help spread the goods!
