Wine Review Tag Cloud

One of the perks I get from working at the world’s largest wine website is that I get to drink and review a lot of wine. And after writing reviews for upwards of 557 different wines, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was reusing some words.

So in the interest of being a huge geek, I exported all my written reviews from Snooth and ran the text through the tag cloud generator at http://www.wordle.net/. Then I did the same thing with Snooth’s resident wine expert Gregory Dal Piaz – just for shitting and giggling.

Can you figure out which is mine and which is the expert’s?

Check out my design for the first ever Snooth Cycling Jersey. If you work for a winery or wine merchant, speak up on the Snooth Forums and we just might include your logo for free.

Photoshop jockeys might appreciate how I simulated the stretching fabric on the back. All I needed was an iPhone, a t-shirt, a bottle of wine, and a dream. Which is coincidentally how most of my weekends begin.
