What to Expect

posted by mark in Website Updates, Snooth

This week we’ve got a few exciting updates on the site. The first, and highest in profile, is a new section on our wine profile pages. As I continue to grow with my knowledge of wine, I find it’s very helpful to talk to someone who is further along in their journey. It is helpful to localize what I’m experiencing to hear someone else describe what they’ve grown to know.

On many of our wine profiles, you’ll now see a section that does just that. It tells you what to expect when you’re tasting the wine. I’m excited to use this to get a hint about what I might find in a new grape or new region’s wines.

Here’s an example of this section on a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, certainly one of the distinctive and iconic wines of the world.

We’ve also made it possible for users to upload more than a single photo for any wine profile. If you’ve got a bottle shot of your own, you can now add that to the wine. This can be very helpful, especially when the current photo is blurry, or if you have a version of the bottle with a label from another country. The same wine can have different labels in different markets, so one image may not be enough information.
