I find nothing offensive about what you have rewritten and as was pointed out, I never once said anything about wine being only about the grapes. (and no you did not directly say I was an idiot but was implied) Wow! I see you actually edited the part I found offensive out of your original post! That would be the part where you told me I totally missed the point by a country mile and I was basically an idiot. I am sorry if you find that simple fact offensive. We see the episode differently and I'm leaving it at that.Īs I said before, there is more to a wine than the grapes it's made of. If you think you can just mix together grapes from a great Cabernet and grapes from a great Merlot and that you'll get more than a second class vino then think again.Īlso, real wine tasters don't simply guess the regional origin of the wine, they typically get the precise location and the year as well, things they didn't do in this episode.ĬatNamedRudy wrote:Sigh.just when I think you and I are starting to get along ok, you have to respond in a snotty manner. There is much more to wines than just the grapes they're made of, there is the precise way by which they're made, part of which is often a secret. It makes about as much sense as playing base ball with a basket ball or making a car out of parts from a Ferrari and a Mercedes or cutting two dresses in half one by versace and one by Cardin and making a new one with the pieces. I am sorry but you just don't mix two great wines together the way they did in the episode. They are made that way by blending different types of grapes together. It's not like they opened two bottles of wine and mixed them in the same glass. CatNamedRudy wrote:Blended wines are not uncommon.
