Different Tongues - Power of Suggestion

[n144mann]

I agree the numbers ARE misleading sometimes, and I was fortunate to have someone I trust tell me that right away!! And as for the cat pee thing, I must like it also, because I like the NZ SB's too! I usually will try a wine no matter what it is rated, esp if it is recommended by someone I know and trust.

As for training my palate....I am trying!!! Some of those descriptors are really illusive for me, but I know if I keep at it, it will come.

I looked in my cellar.....right now, only have two wines that I know the ratings for. (recommendations of Curmy) I have been relying on my retailer and friends and you guys for ideas on new wines and then just experimenting with whatever sound interesting to me.
