Polly,

It's easier to start with a wine that is low in tannin (easy to drink) and work your way up the flavor/style scale than it is to start out with a wine that is going to "smack you upside the head" out of the gate.

If John's wife tries the Beaujolais Village and likes it a lot than we know to point her in the direction of "lighter" styles of wine.

If she thinks is "ok" than we know to direct her into "medium" styles of wine.

This process goes on until we can figure out, stylistically, what people want.

Unfortunately for us many people know what they like and can't explain it, or they know what they like when they get there.

It's just a matter of us figuring out what "road" to send you down.
