What’s Your Wine Personality? Discover the Grape That Matches You!

Have you ever wondered—if you were a wine, what would your personality be?  Let’s dive into the world of Italian wines and uncover your “grape personality.”

🌱 Native

You’re deeply rooted in tradition and thrive in the comfort of your hometown. Think of grapes like Nebbiolo, found in the hills of Piedmont, or Sagrantino, nestled in Umbria’s serene landscapes. Your strength lies in your authenticity, and you bloom where your roots run deepest.

🌍 Local

You’ve ventured beyond your origins, adapting to new surroundings while keeping your heritage alive. Much like Vermentino, flourishing along the Ligurian coastline and Sardinian shores, your essence shines in every new environment, blending the old with the new.

🇮🇹 National

A proud representative of your culture, you embrace diversity but stay true to your core. Sangiovese, the backbone of Tuscany’s Chianti Classico, mirrors your ability to adapt while carrying the richness of your identity wherever you go.

✈️ International

Worldly and adaptable, you thrive wherever life takes you, like Chardonnay—a globe-trotting grape with roots in Burgundy and flourishing in Trentino or Franciacorta. Your versatility is your superpower, blending seamlessly into new cultures while staying unmistakably you.

🍇 Traditional

The perfect blend of old and new, you honor the past while embracing a fresh perspective. Take Barbera, for instance: once overshadowed by flashier wines, it’s now celebrated for its balance and charm—a true embodiment of growth and renewal.

Our Grape Personalities

Alessia: Chardonnay

If I were a grape, I’d be Chardonnay. Why? Because it perfectly captures versatility and adaptability. Much like this iconic varietal, I thrive in diverse environments, blending seamlessly into different cultures while staying true to my core.

Chardonnay’s journey across centuries—from Trentino’s mineral-driven expressions to Franciacorta’s sparkling elegance—is like the story of a seasoned traveler. It soaks up the unique essence of every place it visits, reflecting its terroir while maintaining its unmistakable identity.

For me, life is about embracing new experiences, learning, and growing—just as Chardonnay does in every vineyard it calls home.

Elisabetta: Viognier

I’d be a Viognier—a grape with a unique, confident character that stands out without being overpowering.

Viognier is the type of grape that makes wines that catch your attention, with its vibrant aromas and richness, and yet always carries an air of intrigue.

Like Viognier, I adapt to my surroundings, much like this grape does in the vineyards of France, California, Australia, and even in my beloved Tuscany, but I still remain true to who I am at my core.

Viognier is not a follower; it is distinctive, with layers that unfold the more you get to know it. Similarly, I value authenticity and individuality.

What About You?
