Matt Attacks Toasty Oak

[Innkeeper]

Matt Kramer, the columnist many of you love to hate, or hate to love, has come out four square in the current (6/15/02) edition of WS as a firm opponent of tasty oak. He even disapproves of it in certain reds! The ranks of AB(TO)C seem to be growing and growing.

On another board recently, someone asked the odd question, "What are your ten favorite whites?" The responses were amazing. Of the two dozen or so people who replied, only one started with chardonnay. All the rest started with riesling. Of those that included chardonnay on their list at all, most caveated it with words like "in Chablis", "unwooded", or "in Maconnais."
