We really need a "What are you drinking tonight thread" for wine drinkers. Last night I opened a cheap Crozes-Hermitage for our second bottle late in the evening and after sticking my nose in had to call my wife over to tell me I wasn't crazy - it had an absolutely unmistakeable aroma of latex, like a condom or balloon on the nose! And to top it off it tasted strongly of grapefruit. Who would imagine such a drink being appealing[/QUOTE]

if it has a good looking label, and the purveyor claims parker of ws gave it a"90" not only will it sell like hotcakes, but most of the wine drinkers will say "yum, yum" and come back for more.
