**6. Conclusions**

The context and environment affected the perceptual responses of consumers when tasting a wine product. Although liking was marginally affected, the dark-VR environment elicited different emotional responses compared to those of the traditional booths. The virtual reality technology provides a relatively stable and inexpensive method for sensory evaluation by providing a more realistic consuming environment compared to that of traditional sensory booths.
