NYTimes: Asimov on WineWords
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 11:33 am
Asimov's Pour in today's NYTimes speaks to the wine words:
NYTimes:Asimov/WineWords
of bitter/cold/dark/green/oak in an interesting, if a bit unfocused, column.
To me, "green" is a descriptor I use for wines made from underripe grapes that would probably have made a better wine if harvested a bit later. To my taste, it has a negative connotation in all cases I can think of. I've never found it to be a positive descriptor.
