My interpretation: A truly fruity wine is synonymous with pure fruit juice that has some natural sweetness present. Wine that is vinified to extreme dryness to my term is only half fruity because it is bland or bitter to the taste though it smells fruity. According to the Oxford Dictionary: “Bitter†= not sweet. If you want to really be amused... try to get a german winemaker to actually drink one of his modern dry wines. g More infos: www.wein-plus.com Unsubscribe: www.wein-plus.com/abmelden.htm |
