The You talk purty as a two dollar whore
Quote of the Week. "Flamboyant
and utterly hedonistic, the 1999 Chante Perdrix Chateauneuf-du-Pape is
nothing short of decadence in a glass. Tantalizing scents of kirsch,
fresh Herbes de Provence and exotic spices spring from the glass. In the
mouth, rich complex flavors permeate the savor of this exemplary
Chateauneuf-du-Pape, providing a veritable feast for the palate. All the
while, ripe, lush tannins provide ample structure and depth to the
wine, and lead to an explosive finish...Open this well-endowed beauty an
hour before serving, and allow Chante Perdrix to work its scintillating
magic." (International Wine of the Month Club Newsletter, Vol.5 No. 5)

The 'Hyperbole,
thy Name is Scotsman' Now Get your Finger out of my Drink Quote of
the Week: "Kevin Judd is one of the most important men
on the planet. He makes the tantalisingly difficult to get hold of
Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc...and the phenomenal Te Koko, which tasted as
if God himself had stirred it with his fingers." (BILL CLAPPERTON, The Scotsman)
The Open
Mouth, Insert Rotor Blade Very Painful Quote of the Week: "This dark wine . . . helicopters into the
mouth with spinning blades of intense fruit." (Andrew Jefford, Financial
Times of London on a Georges Duboeuf 2003 cru
Beaujolais.) Enjoy it tonight with novacaine and a transfusion.
The Things
you'll never see on WiseWalletWine.com quote of the week: "Very fat and sweet on the palate, with ripe black
fruit sensations augumented by a panoply of Near Eastern spices,
marzipan and black pepper, all underscored by a minerality that suggests
India ink, Lapsang Souchong tea and woodsmoke." (International Wine
Cellar). Look, we aren't saying that the wine (Foradori
Granato '01) doesn't taste/smell/feel/suggest precisely as
described. We're just saying we don't want to have to go to
Chinatown to know what we are drinking is supposed to taste like.
BTW: a bottle of this juice will run you fifty scoots. A
dictionary that defines "panoply" will be $11.95. If you
figure out why "the complete arms and armor of a warrior" is in
your wine, give us a shout
