"Foxy" POV

[edit]

"Enough with this nonsense about "foxiness". It's clear from viewing the history of this and other pages that one Wikipedia editor has decided to apply the obtusely vague adjective "foxy" to any Indigenous North American Grape cultivar. Use of the term "foxy" in this sense is either a neologism or completely unestablished as it cannot be found in any dictionary. In any case it does nothing to further the public's knowledge and comprehension of the flavour of this grape cultivar. 67.142.172.31 (talk) 04:50, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Foxy" is a term used in the wine literature, it's not made up by an editor. Tomas e (talk) 17:30, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should a random quote by a wine snob really be in the wiki?

[edit]

"One reviewer, Paul Bulas, attempted to characterize the "foxy" description. In analyzing the Niagara grape, he detected aromas like candied lemon rind, a Riesling-like diesel aroma, flowery jasmine-like notes, and what he called "a high-toned, candied muskiness." This latter descriptor he felt was the primary element of the term "foxy". "
