The Chron's Sense of Debit Humor
Posted 12 01 2008 by miquel 0 Comments
The San Francisco Chronicle recently reviewed a number of wines in their Wine for Every Occasion section. The good news is that they like the Bibich Debit a great deal. The bad news (or maybe the expected news) is that they found the name a bit humorous. Not to be surprised as the first time I saw a bottle of Debit I wondered what it meant. From my background in Croatian, I assume it comes from "debeo" which means "fat or thick" which is fitting given that it's a very tasty, full-bodied white wine. Of course, I could be completely wrong on this and am more than willing to stand corrected.
