Wine in pictures

If your eyes begin to glaze over at the endless use and misuse of gardening, geologic, farmer's market, and -- what next, car repair invoice perhaps -- terms to try to describe wine, take a look at an ingenious blog called Chateau Petrogasm. The contributors post only images to "explain" their opinions of what they have tasted. On the page up today, most of the wines are grocery store choices -- the image for Yellowtail Shiraz/Grenache is priceless -- and one is a $400 Cote Rotie, a red wine from the northern part of France's Cotes-du-Rhone region (near Lyon).


Further descriptors for a site that is all about non-verbosity seem pointless. Do go.
