So don't give me this BS about wine and wine making.
Hey, there's no accounting for taste. I have to agree with the Belgian above (first time for that, by the way) that there is a lot more to wine than the basic grape.

There are good California wines but to say that overall, they are superior to French wines, is just hogwash. Seriously. Not worth arguing about.
