cost

Cost is mostly determined by where you are so we have decided to use a very general pricing system. Exact costs in your area can be found on individual wine pages:
$ less than US$10
$$ between US$10-20
$$$ between US$20-50
$$$$ between US$50-100
$$$$$ over US$101

rating

Members of the-wine-guide can vote on the overall quality of a wine and a wine's rating is an average of the votes. You should view this as a rule of thumb. Like a movie review, you may love one film for certain qualities but someone else watching the exact same film may loth it for the same reasons. If a three star wine has a flavor profile that appeals to you, you should give it a shot. But you may want to give one star wines with many votes a miss.

flavor

Flavor profile of a wine. These are determined by votes, users of the-wine-guide chose what flavors they think are in the wine, the top 5 voted flavors will come out on top

origin

The place where a wine is grown. The place of origin is important because like coffee, a grape varietal will pick up distinct set of flavor characteristics based on the soil or climate of the region it is grown in. In Europe this is called terroir, and it is considered so important it is the foundation of their entire naming system.

varietal(s)

A varietal is the type of grape used to make the wine. Each varietal of grape has its own climate that it likes to grow in and a distinct flavor. The type of grape used to make a wine is largely responsible for how a wine will taste. So a bottle of Cabernet from California will have similar characteristics to a Cab from South Africa.

type

The type of wine. A wine can be red, white, rose, dessert (includes ports and other fortified wines, late harvest, ice wine, and anything else sweet), sparkling (includes Champagne), sparkling rose, sparkling red

body

The 'mouth-feel' of a wine. Can range from light, medium to full-bodied. A full bodied wine would be very rich, heavy and dense in character like a dark earl grey tea or a steak dinner. A light bodied wine would be refreshing like chrysanthemum tea or a salad.

When it comes to wine, you want to try something new, something exotic, you want to play around. But should your foray into the dark reaches of your local speakeasy's wine list turn up a dud, you don't want to be stuck nursing it late into the night.

Enomatic dispenserThe people at the Sheraton Hong Kong understand this, which is why they have installed an Enomatic wine dispenser in their Sky Lounge Wine Room. Now your mad-cap nights don't have to be regulated to one bottle of vino, you can play the field, and sample up to 24 bottles of bliss before setting in on the one you want to spend the night with. Or being the social butterfly that you are, you can just keep trying different wines all night, never settling down.

Don't worry about your wine getting old and tired, as the Enomatic has you covered. No matter how many people taste or how long that bottle of wine has been in the machine, the Enomatic ensures that the wine you get will be as fresh as the day it had it's cork popped.

Don't we wish we could all be like that?
