Oenophile

An Oenophile (also known as a wine aficionado) is a person who appreciates or collects wine, particularly grape wines from certain regions, varietal types, or methods of manufacture.

While most Oenophiles are normal, everyday people, some may also be vintners, wine merchants, or as in the case of Robert Parker, one who tastes and grades wines for a living.
