OULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT While We Still Can ! the headline should finish ...
I'm so bloody well over all of this sameness/shameness of bloody shameful wine that's pleasant and vaguely pleasing but tasting all the rotten, god-damn shame! What a scam, what a bunch of lousy, susceptible and fools are we to buy so easily into all this marketing of sameness/we all be to blame!
I wrote this paragraph awhile ago and would love to have the opportunity to discuss it sometime as the scope of what I am talking about is vast and pervasive and already much in place and yet we are all choosing - us in the business - to turn the other way and to ignore it and it's implications and the consequences now and ever-increasing. That saddens me. There should be more public debate. There should be more people examining and discussing where we have been in the wine world, where we are now and were we most certainly will go if we do not publicly discuss more of this and make more people aware of what our choices are now and what they may be as a result of our actions later.
It's now Tuesday, May 10th, 2011 at 9:12AM here at home in northern Virginia on a beautiful spring day I might add and I am off to work now and have a store email to write as well as a dinner to sell some more tonight with three French wine-makers at Lavandou restaurant down at the end of our block in Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits.
I would love to have anyone say anything here in the comment section below this blog entry. TONY
