- Hedonistic
Robert Parkers favorite word.
Wines that just blow you away.
Parker likes hedonistic, but it’s possible for you to just say the wine is damn amazing.
- Earthy
The wine smells like dirt, leaves, and wood.
It is also used to describe wines that have a finish that tastes similar to green vegetables.
- Barnyard
This means the wine smells like poop.
It is usually not a favorable descriptor.
Since the wine smells like poop, might as well just say so.
