I rather dislike all that balls. wine comes in a much lesser
range of flavours than food, so why do we need all this nonsense.
Tell us if its oaky, fruity, crisp etc then resist the temptation
to talk about "are you getting plimpsoles?" The thread is called
"european hyperbole", do you not get this old nonsense outside
Europe? In fact do you get it across Europe? You certainly do get
it in UK although plenty of people here laugh at it.

Er, what was the wine that smells of Brazillian women? A friend
is interested.

I shudder to think what she did with the wine.

White wine is easy to confuse with other liquids.

Its happening more and more as reasonably decent wine is becoming
affordable. People hear grandiose terms being attributed to wines, and
assume that the point is to come up with the most grandiose terms.

Some of the official terms are bizarre enough...I belive "wet dog" is
actually one of them.

I'm still trying to figure out if thats a good thing or a bad thing (and
trying to hold back comparisons with "wet dog")!

Mixendorfer Stierscheiße Riesling Spätlese 2005

With a heady aftertaste of rodent and bovine excrement, this aromatic
late-picked wine from Germany's Schweingau combines both pedantry and
persistence. With a subtle hint of styrofoam container, the wine
should be served as an accompaniment to Happy Meals.

I live in Virginia, and in our state we have a rather interesting wine
industry, and we definitely get that here. Watch the movie "Sideways" which
occurs in California. . . . .

What does your "friend" want to do with it? Splash it on an inflatable
companion?
