Introduction

 Hi, my name is Kierron Hardy. My experience with wine is that I drink wine a few times each month. I first tried wine when i first turned 21 on my birthday and I got a sweet white wine from a wine shop and I have stuck to that group since. I usually tend to stick with white wine. I am not really a fan of red wine as of yet, however the only red wines I have tasted so far is more bitter red wines. I think I would enjoy more of the sweeter red wines but have not found any as of yet.

The types of wine I usually like the most are sweet white wines. Any type that is sweet I usually like, if its either expensive or on the cheaper side, a sweet wine is usually right up my alley. I have a sweet tooth in generally, that is I eat a decent amount of candy often. For me a sweet drink like a sweet wine is delicious to me. I also love to drink sparkling wine. Usually I only get this when I have others to drink with, I tend to not drink sparkling by myself. I'm not sure why but sparkling wine is much more enjoyable with others, while white wine I can enjoy with others or alone.

The types of wine I usually really dislike or stay away from are more bitter tasting wine. The taste of bitterness in any type of food or beverage is not an enjoyable taste for me. I am much more of a sweet flavor than a bitter flavor person. Usually the bitter tasting wines I have tasted have been red wines. I think this is the reason why I also generally stay away from red wines as of right now even though I know not all red wines are bitter. I will eventually try to branch out to tasting some sweet red wines and even try out the more bitter wines in the future.
