Even if you’re not much of a wine drinker, you probably still have your preference when it comes down to red, white or rose. But what does that actually say about you as a person? Probably not that much, but we love a good study, so we couldn’t help but be a bit intrigued by a recent one conducted by French Wine with Style. The study was done only in the U.K. and looked at 2,000 people, their personalities, social habits and wine preferences.
