There is, in fact, a wine for each zodiac sign, based on personality traits and preferences. Astrology can be your ultimate sommelier. From extravagant Leos to shy Virgos, there's a vinted variety of grapes to match every star pattern in the sky. This zodiac wine list will help you see which bottle is best suited for your stars; may you age as fine as the wine that matches your sign!
People born under Aries tend to be dynamic, confident, and occasionally even aggressive. They are optimistic and passionate, never turning away from a challenge. Their energy and organization skills make them hardworking leaders, and they are often the first to finish tasks.
The perfect wine for an Aries is a sauvignon blanc: a "wild white" wine to match their assertiveness. It has been characterized as "aggressively-citrus-driven," and is balanced by notes of exotic fruit and herbaceous hints of grass or mint.
Those born under Taurus are considered reliable, stable, and responsible. They might be stubborn, but they're also optimistically ready for commitment, and they definitely have a romantic and loyal side. Tauruses want to be surrounded by love and beauty, enjoying life's physical pleasures.
Pinot noir was made for Tauruses. It's a balanced wine that is never too sweet or too acidic; a light-bodied red with hints of red fruit and red floral notes like roses. Like Tauruses, pinot noir is far more complex and rewarding than it appears at first blush.
Geminis are known for being gentle and affectionate, if sometimes a little bit indecisive. That indecisiveness is okay though, because moscato is right there with you.
Moscato is a light and fruity wine, and usually has a much lower level of alcohol than other wines. It's has a reputation for sweetness, and usually boasts strong floral notes - think honeysuckle and orange blossom. Not sure what you're in the mood for? That's all right, since moscato comes in several styles: bubbly, still, pink, black, and dessert. Plenty of options for any Gemini.
Generally, Cancers are an intensely loyal, imaginative, and moody group of people. Often sensitive, they are deep wells of emotion and enjoy helping loved ones or sitting down to a good meal with friends and family.
Shiraz, also known as syrah, is the wine of choice for Cancers. Shiraz is a full-bodied wine, deeply complex and containing flavors like plum, blueberry, tobacco, pepper, meat, and even chocolate. It is often described as having an intensely "meaty" flavor.
Leos tend to be leaders—they're dramatic, confident, and difficult to resist. They're often generous and warm-hearted, but also have a tendency towards laziness and may come off as arrogant. Leos enjoy the finer things in life, loving anything that makes them feel like a king or queen, from going out with friends to taking expensive vacations.
The obvious wine of choice for Leos is Champagne, a symbol of luxury. True Champagne comes only from the Champagne region of France, and can be much more expensive than "sparkling wine" from anywhere else. It usually boasts fruity notes such as strawberry, apple, pear, and citrus, as well as cream and vanilla. Though he probably didn't say it, Dom Perignon is often quoted declaring, "Come quickly, I am tasting the stars" after his first taste of Champagne. How's that for drama?
Virgos are known for being loyal, analytical, and kind, but often, they stand off to the side due to their shy tendencies. They are tender-hearted and often misunderstood, but they are not to be underestimated.
Much like Virgos, rosé has more going on than people may realize. Assumed to be a sweet and "ladylike" drink, rosé packs a zing, can occasionally be on the dry side, and often contains flavors like citrus zest and rhubarb. It is a lighter, easy-drinking wine, and Virgos may need an extra glass or two to shake themselves out of their "all work, no play" attitude.
