What wine variety do you hate?
26 October 2007
At the Guzzle we usually preach tolerance and love for all, and that applies to wine varieties as well. No ABC (Anything but chardonnay) club members here, nor do we follow the post Sideways "I'm not drinking any fuckin' Merlot" fad.
I was inspired a few nights ago, however, by Matt's inspired tirade of abuse against trans-Tasman cats' piss (read: NZ Sauvignon Blanc), which is all the rage at the moment.
So, this got me thinking (which is rare these days) - I'm sure everyone has a type of wine that puts their teeth on edge and makes their stomach churn. . My earliest memories of this were stealing shots of my mother's cask-of-death Spumante. It was sickeningly sweet,even to meĀ as a kid, with a sherbety aftertaste that gummed your entire mouth closed.
So what wine do you hate?
