Wine with Leslie: Some wines that 'taste posh' — and are delicious as well

Packed with plush black and red fruits, these wines taste expensive

Does deliciousness matter more than complexity and typicité in a wine? Picture: Leodanieli.

So I’ve been thinking. Does deliciousness matter more than complexity and typicité in a wine? And does it matter that a wine tastes of its expensive self rather than its region?

I’m probably showing my age with these questions. I know some serious and committed wine folk (mostly younger than me) who are seeking out rare amphora-fermented wines from Georgia with the same zeal as I sought out Cru Classé Bordeaux when I was their age. They won’t refuse a glass of Lynch Bages 2000 but I think the shock of the new holds more appeal.
