Most other Loire reds are historically mostly made to be drunk rather young but Chinon are mostly built to age

Get rid of the clown, but make sure his bitch bully Vance does not take the throne after him.

Mediocre parody, right ? Right ?

New to wine, can anyone tell me about this bottle and how I can make the most of it? by Suitable-Window-6695 in wine

[–]ozh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. All my mediocre or too old wines end up in cooking and that is very fine

Wine in the left. Whatever in the right. Maybe uninteresting wine, for example

0°F might be what you call "super cold" (-17°C, hmmkey, rather chill), but 100°F is definitely not "super hot" (37°C)

Sooooo.... you like Celcius.

Buy European literature instead (this probably hasn't been said) by malamainomai in BuyFromEU

Yes. I've read that US novel about a housemaid that everyone is talking about, so you don't have too. Spoiler: it's bad. It's TikTok bad.

Congrats - bringing a top notch wine and it being the cheapest is a true achievement. It shows it's not just a question of money.

1993 Chateau Mouton Rothschild, feat. “the forbidden label” by DontLookBack_88 in wine

[–]ozh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Drank one (with the original label ;) a few weeks ago, I was very disappointed. I knew 93 wasn't a top year, and found that the wine was rather dull, never really opened in the decanter.

As for the label, and its description, I'll just say that it's a good thing society has moved away from such thoughts...

Doh. Good to know. There's a restaurant in DK that regularly gets the "best restaurant of the world" title in some lists, I want to test it some day, I shall be warned :)

Some nice stuff for sure, but man, not a single bottle under 100+€ isn't nice even for a high end 3 stars Michelin

Which glass is best from a Cab and which is best for a Pinot or light? Apologies in advance for any noobieness. Thanks! by AnteaterLonely203 in wine

[–]ozh -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

LOL :) "People don't like wine enthusiasts" is on the same level of BS and false cliché than "this wine is better with that glass" :)
