Do what I say, not what I do?
"In 1979 Grange Hermitage was declared the world's greatest wine at the Gault-Millau but don't expect it to win ever again because in 1980 the French abolished blind tasting at the Gault-Millau Wine
Olympiad. If a wine called "Hermitage" ever wins again it will be a French wine, because the department of trade has ensured that no foreign wine may be called "Hermitage".
The curious thing is that since 1979 French wine companies have invested heavily in Australian and NZ. Very smart of them, because each day good value Australian wines take more & more market share in
the UK, US and German markets. Pretty soon we can expect EU tariffs and subsidies as an attempt to compel other Europeans not only to pay for mediocrity but, worse, have to drink it too.
When will Europeans get tired of subsidising inefficient French farmers?"
