About Wine Swinging
and Our Journey to the Perfect Bottle
The Wine Swinging Team
We are tasting and drinking wine with purpose since 2005. The purpose is to appreciate this gift of nature in its many expressions and recognize the character in every bottle. This conscious consumption of wine helped us over time to develop our taste senses and even water now tastes different. It’s a gift and it’s a “curse.”
It’s a gift because now each bottle of wine is more than a drink – it’s a story. It’s a story of a grape varietal, wine region, vineyard, and winemaker. It’s a “curse” because over time we developed the taste for more complex wines and somehow stores tend to charge more for what we like.
On our journey to that perfect bottle of wine, we already met a few that we will never forget. Join us on our lifelong search for the best wine you ever tasted.
Why Wine Swinging
What's in the name?
When one famous actress was asked if she’s in love at the moment, she replied, yes, I’m always in love – only the subjects are changing. Our thought process is the same for wine. We are in love with the wine in its totality and swing between the different bottles.
Each bottle has the story to tell and, while we have our favorites, we always ready for a new one. With wine, as with other things in life, even your favorite things can get boring. That’s when wineswinging comes to rescue.
For the first time, the idea of “wineswinging” came to us when we were drinking wine and listening to swing in a Manhattan bar.
A good swing tune inevitably creates a visceral response of feet-tapping or head-nodding. A good wine may not make you tap, but it sure can make your senses sing and sing with a swing. And, just like with music, the wine choice is endless.
