hehe. ways to describe wine when you don't really know how. example: "Soberly Dionysian."

i went to a "ghetto wine tasting" (TM) last year, which stole a packet of info from a legit wine tasting, and there was a list of ways one should describe the taste of wine. ie, 'dry,' 'fruity.' and one was 'mouse.' i swear. or it might have been 'rodent.' i can't remember.

The flavor of Sauvignon Blanc is very commonly likened to the smell of cat piss. That was always my favorite. No joke.

well, with regards to the $3.50 bottle of Trader Joe's wine we sampled last night, I would say it was pleasingly economical, with a subtle bouquet redolent of industrial solvents.
