Critic to the Wine Critic

[jv38]

My point is that other wine writers do not put down those regions that they don't like by asking other wine producers to taste those wines that she did not like. Other Wine Writers talk about the wines and their specific characteristics based on what grape were used, how it grows, and how the wine was made. That is something that varies from one country to other and even from one region with in the same country. I don't see the point why she ask a Burgundy producer to taste a Oregon Pinot, or why ask a Champagne producer to taste sparkling wines from other places. What I took from her "Wine Course" is that anything that is not French not worsts a thing. I believe that good wines can be found in all wine regions. You only have to find them. That, I believe, is the fun part of this hobby.
