Get ready to "bury yourself" in Bordeaux, because this week, we’re headed to Graves
So many “questions”, such as:
1. Why does Bordeaux make its appellations and subregions so confusing?
2. Why are they called first growths when there are five of them?
3. Why are my eyes fuzzy??
Some mysteries we may not be meant to uncover the truth of
To find the answers to life's most important questions, we must look deep within ourselves. "🧘"
The answer to nearly everything regarding European wine is either A) something gets lost is translation but makes more sense in the original language, or B) something made sense 100-200 years ago but not so much now but "tradition". Or both.
Holy shit best wordplay in a title yet! Like, in all of substack!!!
Oh hell yeah. @Substack – DM us for details on where to send the award.
