Whom Can You Trust?
Tim Atkin at The Observer asks, “Should you trust a wine writer’s view?” He says yes, though of course, he’s biased as a wine writer, which he readily admits. However, should you trust the stuff on the bottle that says the wine is “quality”? Take that with a grain of salt. They’re just trying to sell you something, and it’s more than easy to lie with statistics.
This got me thinking: should you trust this blog? Well, if you’re in your mid-twenties and like to drink knowledgeably, yes. For everyone else, maybe. Then again, I’m biased. You of course need to take your own palate into consideration, too. My girlfriend, for example, certainly wouldn’t trust some of my opinions.
