wine guide
Vineyard selection expert
A wine guide is a person or publication that helps navigate wine selection.
In restaurants, a wine guide (or sommelier) recommends pairings and explains the list.
In print or online, wine guides rate and describe wines by region, variety, or price point: I consulted a wine guide before buying a case of Burgundy.
