Wine verses food position

[mrdutton]

I've said that very same thing in several posts.

Seems we are at odds here over semantics and are disagreeing to agree!!??!!

Heck, you even recommend the book in one of your columns on the www.wine-lovers-page.com web-site.

You said:

"They should read the Avenger for all the good stuff, and discard what they don't think is so good. But above all, they should never, never read it -- or any other publication like this -- as gospel. You and I may not like oaky Chardonnay, but why waste paper and energy telling people they're wrong if they do?"
--------------------------------------------

Again it just may be semantics, but when has anyone here ever said that drinking any particular wine is wrong?

I say I don't like something, but I don't think I've ever said that someone else should not try it. I and others here have certainly said "as an alternative, why don't you try" or words to the like. But, really, I don't know about ever saying that a wine was "wrong"!

Cheers!
