Taste The Vulgarity

I always love to gauge people's reactions when tasting certain wines (and beers), and over the years I've heard many entertaining adjectives to describe what is in the glass. A couple of weeks ago, I heard what has become my new favorite - someone called a wine's flavor profile "vulgar". Well, the wine in question (DeWaal Pinotage, $19.99 a bottle) shows off a myriad of in-your-face flavors, such as smoke, leather, and earth, and would pair well with smoked meats, a bowl of chili, or is a sensory experience all its own. Vulgar? Well, pick up a bottle and judge for yourself.

Hey Bill, it's Daniele!
The blog is a great idea, so you can suggest us some wine and keep us updated with new entries.

By the way, that Pinotage was veeery intriguing...and vulgar! :)
