We found some interesting translations supplied by producers from a prestigious French wine area for their 2008 London Wine Fair booklet (..and yes we do know what they meant to say, really) :

“The dress is yellow now weak. We find side crystallized citrus fruit…”
“In mouth is delicate, grain wine suave…”
“Vinification: just feel the Art… Viticulture: just help nature to grow golden grappes…”
“Very exotic wine to smell and very fruity in the mouth, it’s due to the grass.”
“This wine is appropriate very well for fish of sea, snails of Burgundy, frogs thighs,…”
