rancid wine Explanation: rancid: characteristic flavour common to all oils and fats that have undergone a process of auto-oxidation caused by prolonged contact with the air.This flavour is unpleasant and cannot be corrected -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-05-18 20:14:17 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Apart from the reds and the whites, there is also a very particular wine made here called Vi Ranci, or \"rancid wine\" which is used as a dessert wine and in cooking. These are aged in barrels at a higher than normal temperature to allow for a natural oxidation process to take place. Another particular wine (although it doesn\'t follow a fermentation process) is Mistela, a sweet white wine also used as an accompaniment to desserts. http://www.winepleasures.com/info/priorat.shtml A special, added attraction for Americans who want to experience the truly wild Canada is the province of Quebec. Quebec is full of French people, and as history has shown us, French people always add a little je-ne-sais-quoi, a little spice, a little body odour, a little promiscuity, a little smelly cheese and rancid wine to the mix. And that\'s what you\'ll find in Quebec, along with being able to buy bottles of wine in regular grocery stores! http://www.zcportal.com/2002/1101/wildcanada.asp -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-05-18 20:15:52 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ... ruvido, aspretto. vin sentant le rance, goût de rance, vinho rancido, vino ráncido, ranziger Wein, rancid wine, vino rancido. vin taché, ... |
