I read this article in Food & Wine magazine and had to share it. I have been confused by the plethora of nomenclature that dominates the world of wine. Ah, if only it were easy to be a wine novice! Read on if you have the time for a chuckle. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]

**Perhaps we just need to be reminded every now and then that wine is just a beverage: a worthy topic of conversation, to be sure, but not a perpetual intellectual challenge.**

Best part of the article and oh so true.
