Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
I know we should buy wines based on quality, not on the name of the wine, and that is what I do. But, there are a couple of wine names that make it hard. I got the impetus for this thread based on this thread viewtopic.php?f=1&t=177396 although I personally am a fan of Clos des Myglands. That being said, no matter how good the wine is, it is a bit tough buying a wine called:
Rotwein
Gutsriesling
No Girls
Horsepower
I may come up with more, but how about you guys?

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
I don't understand the issue with 'rotwein'. Doesn't it simply mean 'red wine' in German?

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
I've always had a hard time warming up to Lemberger, although Blaufrankisch is OK.
Basel Cellars is not one I would chose off a rack of equals.
I agree about Naked wines, but for a different reason. How could a wine be any good with a gimmick name like that?

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
Well, similar to Rotwein for English speakers without German is Rotburger. If you know "rot" is German for red, no big deal, if not, it does sound gross.

Not the name, but there's a wine I can't buy because it has a spider on the label... I can't handle spiders.

It does not matter what it means in German. It just sounds in English like rotten wine.

No Girls.
You should try the Tempranillo. It's amazing and the story to the name is more historic than just tacky.

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
The thing is that the German 'rot' sounds nothing like the English 'rot'. It has nothing to do with my lightheartedness or lack thereof.Howard Cooper wrote: ↑February 1st, 2021, 2:56 pmIt does not matter what it means in German. It just sounds in English like rotten wine.

(Then again, 'Merlot' sounds nothing like 'More Low', to give another example'.)

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
Yes on No Girls. At first I was taken aback by it until I learned the history behind the name and the wine, and why the wine team chose it.
I guess for me the problem with names like Naked Wine or Clothing Optional as I am likely to assume, as noted above with the former, that it is probably not a good wine. That of course may not be true. I remember opening a Bionic Frog or Flying Pig for European friends, and they were skeptical given the cartoonish label and names -- but then really liked the wine!

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
Naked Wines and Naked Winery are two different entities. Naked Wines I don't know much about, but the Naked Winery, based in Columbia Gorge, WA/OR is one I've owned and some of their wine names, Penetration, Oh! Orgasmic, etc..., though decent wines, I'd avoid. I'm not a prude, but also see no need for the crude names.

Re: Wines you have trouble buying because of the name
Along the same lines, I’ve always been amused by HERMANNSHÖHLE. What is so special about Hermann’s Hole?
It may appear that I’m picking on zee Germans, but I also can’t bring myself to buy Weingut Kunstler, even though the wines are supposed to be spectacular. I can only imagine the lawyer for the Chicago 7, and the associated aromas of patchouli and body odor.
