Question of the Week

[JimCook]

Here's the noodle-baker for this week - have your deep thinking caps ready...


Different wine grapes have different personalities that come through when they are made into their liquid gold form. Which one Vitis Viniferagrape do you most resemble? And most importantly, why do you feel this way?


Be careful with your answer - the forum here will see how true to the course they feel you are.

Now that leaves a lot of us out of the discussion.................
I'm sure Waldo is like a Muscadine grape, some others are strictly ALL American and I am simply a cold hardy hybrid all the way. Oh well, maybe next week....................

They all fit me.......I just get better and better the more I age.

Oh, pash - part of the challenge is fitting into the character of Vitis Vinifera grapes. Man up, American guy!

Think of it in the least as an exercise to help discover the varietal characteristics of some grapes.


Or should we just put you down for Cabernet - bold, richly layered with a hint of evergreen?

Well....... I do have a French heritage............. that might work, but then again sometimes I smell a bit earthy with a hint of fresh mown grass......
