oenophile

noun

1. A person who has a fondness or appreciation for wine.

   “The oenophile had a large wine cellar stocked with bottles from around the world.”

   “With this kind of experience and depth in the wine cellar, the servers can offer exotic flights and other temptations for oenophiles that few Orange County restaurants can equal.”

   “Wines can be described with words like cigar box and “pencil lead,” or flinty or with hints of sandalwood — oenophiles can veer into what many might deem pretentiousness pretty quick.”
