The thing about wine snobs is, when it comes right down to it, nearly all the shit they're spewing is OPINION. All tastes are not the same, people don't experience notes the same way and as I've seen time and again, most of them couldn't identify the grapes in a blend to save their lives. "Good" wine is whatever you like!!!!

But you know what? Over the years I've noticed more people drinking wine that couldn't give a fiddler's fart about what the "rating" is and that's encouraging…I think the reason US wine consumption has gone so high up is because people are unwilling to be intimidated by the so-called experts.
