BERGER: The art of wine description
Feb 7, 2012
        (Pressdemocrat) - Describing what a wine tastes like is an art form that isn't taught in any school and is best created by those with an exalted sense of the absurd.
I have seen wine reviewers who wax so poetic that the prose turns scarlet, as if embarrassed to be so manipulated.
A wine can't be simply excellent, it must have “explosive fruit” and “cascades of generosity” and offer a “monumental expansiveness” and “overwhelming breadth and a dramatic if not cataclysmic aftertaste.” Many wine lovers are awed by such language, but fear not.
