Best Wine Descriptors from the IVWA

Our judges at the International Value Wine Awards used some pretty creative words to describe the wines they tasted this year.

We asked some of our judges to tell us about funny or weird wine descriptors that they heard while wine tasting this week. The submissions ranged from humourous, to bizarre, to inappropriate, to downright incomprehensible - but we thoroughly enjoyed reading them and wanted to share some them with you.
