C. Wine Elite Philosophy: Difference Between Cheap and Expensive

Read about our latest interview with IWA Wine Magazine here.

Introduction:

"It’s a claim that’s appeared in almost every wine magazine, on almost every food and drink website and has been discussed in almost every wine tasting room: “You know, even sommeliers can’t tell the difference between cheap and expensive wine.”

Regardless of how many times this phrase has been repeated, is it the truth?

We spoke with a sommelier whose expertise offers excellent insight into this debate. Sommelier Jörn Kleinhans is a certified specialist of wine and the owner of the Wine Elite Sommelier Company. In his advanced wine tasting classes and presentations, Kleinhans specializes in helping long-time wine connoisseurs more deeply understand and appreciate wine."

Read the full interview, and learn about the 3 distinguishing features of high-quality wine.
