Researchers in Switzerland have trained an artificial intelligence program to identify Bordeaux wines from specific estates and vintages with 100% certainty using machine learning to analyze the chemical composition of the wines. The study’s findings offer solid scientific proof that terroir exists and demonstrate that well-made wines reflect their unique environment.
While raising concerns among human wine tasters, the development of AI in wine tasting could potentially free up sommeliers and critics to focus more on the emotional and romantic side of wine criticism.
