Wine Reviews

Reading wine reviews really cracks me up. What a load of gobbledegook they come up with in reporting on different wines. "fresh lemon grass and bracing acidity" Really? "enough roundness in the middle for balance" Whow! "mouthwatering edge of wet stones" Yikes! "pleasantly bitter lemon zest" Ugh!

I have a pretty keen sense of taste and smell but have never been able to detect some of the aromas and tastes that are used to JUSTIFY the outlandish price of some wines. A bit of marketing snobbery methinks.
