would you be able to give reviews like this?
of course not that is ridiculous that people claim to pick up all those flavors. when I taste wine and someone asks me to describe it I can come up with a couple three descriptive terms, but they are mostly just me associating the wine with certain flavors. it's very open to interpretation, based on the taster .. not a hard and fast rule where you should be able to determine everything that went into making the wine.

it's all bullshite. they use fancy rhetoric and just regurgitate what the winemaker tells them went into the process of making, aging, and bottling the wine. when a winemaker tells you how it was aged, your mind is going to trick itself into believing you tasted each individual flavor whether you did or not. looks like in a blind taste test, they couldn't come up with some fancy description for the wine. hell, they couldn't even realize they were drinking one wine at one point.
yeah they're bullshite artists. faux experts.

I'm the same way. for instance, I can usually taste if it's heavy or light on the wood flavor, but I can't tell you which oak tree the barrel came from.
