Meet Our Curator

Ulrike W.

Wine Scientist & Data Curator

Every pairing on iFindWines is backed by rigorous methodology. Ulrike developed the scoring matrix that maps 114 grape varieties across 17 food dimensions — from cooking method and texture to acidity, fat content, and spice level.

With a background in food science and enology, Ulrike has spent years quantifying what sommeliers know intuitively: that great pairing is about chemistry, texture, and balance.

The result is a dataset that eliminates guesswork and makes expert-level pairing accessible through technology.

Great wine pairing is not guesswork. It is chemistry, texture, and balance — quantified and made accessible to everyone. Our scoring system captures what sommeliers learn through decades of experience.

The Science Behind the Scores

Every pairing is scored across 17 food dimensions, each contributing to overall compatibility.
