There is no doubt that they are moving to the "drink it now" crowd. Ripe fruit and light, if any, tannins. I've also started tasting it in Bordeaux.

Of course I've noticed people remarking on how much they like these wines. "Make what sells" is a maxim for a lot of wineries. And with the difficulty a winery must have today to keep the doors open, I can't blame them.

But I also admit that I do like this in some wines. I expect it in zins and Australian shiraz. But with the classic Bordeaux grapes I like the classic Bordeaux traits, no matter where they are grown.
