It’s way too sweet for a glass. In Tokaj they have special spoons for essencia

I don’t know if it’s boring. For me it’s thst you can’t taste more than a spoonful. It’s always only a promise.

It actually doesn’t. It didn’t read the label properly.

It’s consistent with Ed Slingerland’s claim in ‘Drunk’.

It’s a good question. And yes there’s a sh*tload of really bad wine to make it really difficult for the good wine to succeed.

It would seen plainly obvious to me.

For me it's crucial. Wine is not an intellectual puzzle, it's not a topic for a paper. It must be a source of pleasure and that's its primary and main function. I accept of course that not all wines I like, but I don't want to drink wines I intensely dislike.

I suspect my supplier likes the wine. But I think wine shops should sell what their customers like not what the owners do. Unless, of course, you don't mind narrowing customer base. I like the man, he knows wine. But his preferences get better of him. It's 3rd wine I throw away this year.

I trust my independent seller. I know his biases and he knows mine, they mutually exclusive. I won't throw away wine bc he really really likes naturals. We're up for a difficult conversation. I've been a very good customer more about 4 years but my loyalty is limited by my preferences.

So was I. But any attempt to make it into something else failed.

Agreed.
