My Wine Tastes

Before taking this class, I will have to admit, I had a pretty undeveloped palate. I would be lying if I said that I could actually tell the difference between two buck chuck and a Latour. Yet, over the past two months, I have been exposed to so many different varietals of good wine, that I had a hard time swallowing down the selection from Trader Joe's. Just as my aspirations and dreams have been elevated at the GSB, so has my wine taste. It seems only fitting that while I was content with running a lifestyle business before the GSB, I now know that I want to build out a meaningful software company that truly fixes many of the problems of the current US healthcare system. I could have guessed that the GSB would change my attitudes about my business goals, but I could not have guessed that it would have shifted my wine goals. Just as the GSB has helped me realize the business the activities I truly enjoy (growing a company, sales and marketing, financial analysis), this class has made me realize the wine I like. Before this class, I mainly stuck to Italian wine because I had discovered it on a trip to Tuscany with my dad. Yet, I realized over the quarter, that I actually truly enjoy the "jammy" taste of a Cab Sauv. Leave it to GSB to change my life by changing my wine taste.
