But the French have learned by now - and inform more and more about the grapes.For me it is more important to know the grape than the chateau
Many Germans are no better. They automatically say like the sheep in 1984:If you ask Chinese people as to who has the best wine - the general answer is: Oh French wine is very expensive, very good.
first thing: ignoring grape varieties
second thing: wine only as a second thought for a meal - not as the first thought
I have actually met such German sheep, who think and say:
"French wine gooooooooooooooooooood!"
"German wine baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!"
Some think it is enough to just say: "German wine is bad!" to be seen as a connaiseeur.
For me these people are not connaiseeurs, but stupid snobs.
Blue Nun and Liebfraumilch are often the only German wines known in England .....Blue Nun and some other crap, l’ve forgotten the name of. Unheard of in Germany.
It was an Englisman who wrote a book on wines - with the title: "Der Wein spricht deutsch!"I was in an ‘old Germany’ Lokale today, where the food was the accompaniment to the wine. I had smoked trout pared with Riesling.
Truly the land of Bacchus..
The French keep and drink the best wines for themselves, the stuff they export is crap. Last time I was there, I bought a bottle of Pouilly-Fume, it was damn nice. Back in the UK, bought the stuff from Asda and it was like pissMany wine nations know more!
I can prove that.
