"The key philosophical question of whether the public's taste has changed and has forced winemakers to change with it, or whether winemaking has changed and forced wine drinkers to follow"
[...] "Gooding is not a change of taste from one thing to another but the switch from a taste for things to one for commodities. One can taste or experience mere warmth only when, through a central heating plant, warmth has been stripped of its pretechnological interwovenness with culture, nature, and community and has been secured merely, i.e., as a commodity"
