To think wine tastes different when on your period??

[Battenbergcoconutice]

Is it just me? My favourite wines taste way better when I'm on. More sweet/ flavoursome. In the first two weeks after period all wine tastes more sour... Is it just me or does anyone else experience this?

I think that all things I like taste/feel better and all things I dislike seem 50x worse when I'm on, lol.

I haven't noticed it with wine, but I'm definitely more sensitive to spicy food

I haven’t experienced this, but when pregnant my sense of smell was heightened - I remember walking past some metal railings and being able to smell the metal! So I’m guessing that hormonal peaks/troughs affect taste and smell in various ways. I might open a bottle and put the theory to the test, all in the name of research!
