Thank you for your sense of humor and the smiles and subsequent potential wrinkles you put on my face with this story. I may drink yesterday's McDonalds coffee at desperate times but my palate does have a discerning (and subjective) taste for wine. A Pinot Noir from Oregon is as specific as my tongue via digits wants to be. I love to bump into indigenous naming of things that have prevailed in our language. Cenzontle! My mouth waters when I say out loud. My family has one living in their back yard. Perhaps if I sang to it, it would mock me. Jeez, I am writing as if I had drank a few glasses of Cenzontle. I will stop. ps. I am traveling to San Antonio and will look for Cenzontle at Total Wines and More or perhaps a more refined place.
Well, Mike, I don't drink wine and know less about it than you. Yet I have learned something very important here today. It's not really wine knowledge exactly, but it came from wine.
What on Earth am I talking about you're probably wondering? Suspenseful music plays. Well, it has to do with Gregory Peck. More weird piano notes and jazz drums.
Okay. Okay. I was trying to convince mi querida to watch "To Kill a Mockingbird" yet when she asked me the title, I realized my poor answer "matar un pájaro" just doesn't have the ring. And she said, as the internet vernacular informs me, meh.
So you've set me on the path. Cenzontle. Thanks! Now I just to practice the pronunciation.
Sounds like a trip to Guanajuato is in order next year!
