To someone who doesn't comprehend the aromatics and nuances or have the availability to taste thousands of wines a year and understand the terroir of each country and region, it can be construed as BS.


It has also been construed as bullshite by several that understand and have access. Just saying...

And I'll kindly disagree....Sauvignon blanc in New Zealand tastes nothing like Sancerre or touraine....Loire clones from Sancerre do not taste the same in California. Oregon Pinot noir tastes nothing like California, which tastes nothing like burgundy. That argument is valid as saying al lagers taste the same, it's your imagination telling you otherwise. Not to mention yeasts that are alive within wineries also give their own personal touch to a wineries aromatics. There are also tendencies of winemakers that show up every year from their choice of oak/toast level, extraction levels, temperatures at primary fermentation. But once again, it's a lot to comprehend for the majority of people.

And Artie, let me guess you read that one article that everyone seems to fall back on I'm guessing. Just like the article where this company in China tested vaporizers at elongated use at higher temperatures and voltage than should be used causing an increase in carcinogens bc someone intentionally burnt the vaporizer. There is more BS out there claiming something is BS honestly.
