I am not living in the UK and I am not a customer of Waitrose.
The law allows profiteering people to sell wines as "Piesporter Michelsberg" even if the grapes don't come from Piesport.
I do not expect every customer to know and understand those weired rules which also allow tomato products from China be labeled as "made in Italy" {Pulp fiction :-)}.
But I do expect experts to have a better grip on the reality of their stocks. I also grow high expectations in connection with words like "LEGENDS" -- so I fully support the approach of the Wine Rambler here.
Please return to your high standards. Knowing the people behind Wine Rambler are full of real passion for wine I am sure this is a valid point of view from them. Waitrose should check this and act on the results.
Support for this open letter
