I first had wine with my family when I was 18, and never really drank it that often because, as most people think the first time they have it, I thought it was disgusting. I kept trying it, since I knew it portrayed "maturity." Over time, I began to enjoy wine more. I turned 21 last May, so that is when my wine tasting experiences really began. I went to the Central VA Wine Festival in July, and after I tried several different Virginia wines, I knew I wanted to know more about wine. I visited a vineyard over the summer as well, so I have learned a little bit about the wine making process. Throughout this semester, I think I may be overwhelmed by all that I am learning, but I can't wait to know as much as I can! Tomorrow, I am doing a free wine tasting at the Vintage Cellar with my friend Josh (who isn't a huge fan of wine), but I'll see if I can convert him into a wine lover!
