🍷 Vin. Vino. Wein. Şarap. Ghvino.
The word we say all day at Taste has a name in nearly every corner of the world.
Twenty countries across Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America each have their own word for what is in the glass. From Georgia to Argentina to South Africa.
Some sound like close cousins. Others sound like nothing else.
Reading them side by side is half the fun.
A guest once described our list as a "blend of French and local w**es." So a glass here can come from either side of that map.
Whatever the word, the bottle ends up in the same place. On a table, shared between people.
Which word for w**e did you grow up saying? Or which one would you like to learn? Tell us in the comments.
