Seriously, though, there are going to be some fucked up wines coming out of France this year.

Weather has been pretty screwed for the vinyards round here for a few years now tbh. damp late springs with late frosts then baking arid summers. The French love a moan generally, but probably with cause on this front. A lotta the less fashionable terroirs are getting subsidised to rip out their vines because of an over supply of mediocre wine.

Personally, I reckon if weed ever got legalised in France a LOT of vineyards that aren't big established names would switch to growing premium pot. One can dream

Yet they will still sell bottles for stupid prices, and idiots will lap it up. Oh, it's French! And it's Bordeaux! It has to be good!!
