| Introduction | Why are the French (and Brits) so clueless about wine? How can you spot a decent restaurant wine list? And choose wisely from a bad one? What can a tea lady teach you about wine and food pairings? Why are medals an unreliable guide to wine quality? What does a Rumpole mystery reveal about the cost of wine? Can a biodynamic wine have a 'bad leaf day'? Are wine gadgets just Plenty O'Toole? What kind of wine fault is man boobs? And can a wine have 'violent tits'? What would Reliant Robin engineers conclude about screw-caps? Or the Gamma Hydra IV colonists (from Star Trek episode 'The Deadly Years') say about industrially manipulated wine? Why would it be absolute mangos to use Brad Pitt as a tasting note? Why will your favourite wines not be coming soon from China's Ningxia province? And what's so boring about Victoria Moore? When I had answered these questions in my column at The Connexion, I quit. The editor did ask me to stay. The columns are published in my new book: 'Why the French are Clueless about Wine'. |
