However, I have had many glasses/bottles that were cheap— and I enjoyed them, and have tried more expensive varients and found those not to my taste. So how do I decide? I wing it, I look at labels, I buy by price (and that can go either way depending on my mood). My most preferred method is the recommendation. Someone else has tried it and proclaimed it wonderful or swill. But what if you don’t have a ton of fellow drinkers to ask? Enter the web and the social network tools based around wine.

Today I came across Snooth, which claims

Snooth is the world’s largest and most comprehensive wine database, featuring millions of reviews and hundreds of thousands of wines. We make it easy for wine lovers to find better wine, seamlessly purchase wine, and enjoy a community.

Which seems a lot like Cork’d, but I was able to find a wine that I am supposed to like in about 10 seconds. I’ll be giving each a try. What do you use?
