SOMM
Somm is an interactive data visualization wine table that help users choose their wines in the wine festival, and share their reviews with other users.
Dataset
The dataset we used for this data visualization is wine reviews data that was scraped from WineEnthusiast in 2017.
Problem
In the context of wine tasting, there are so many varieties of wines on the menu. It is overwhelmingly confusing for most people to make an intuitive choice of the wine because they choose wine only based on the verbal description from the sommelier.
Each wine contains more data than just country, region and title. How can we assist more intuitive wine choice and create more sociable environment for visitors at the wine events?
Opportunity
Wouldn't it be wonderful if there were a service that raises the vibe in the context of wine tasting and socializing?
