The construction of sensory experience
and intellectual authority in the canopy management of sommelier
training decants the connotations of power structures represented in
the basal divisions of wine into old world and new world- where old
and new world divisions signify topographies of intellectual
predation and sensory perfection over Cartesian dissociations of
sight, smell, taste, and ontologies. Terroir- place- becomes a
deductive composite whose residue is an affect of finely filtered
combinatorial assessments, sensory depositions of irrational,
volatile constituents of being, and mitigations of phenomenological
experiences coupled as agonist to the ligands of a constructed canon
of imagined mythologies whose metaphorical pigments of queens and
colonies stain deeper than anthocyanins
The intertextuality of a meso world
field of experience, representation, interrogation, and imagination
delimits this scope of Manichean constructed experience and
authority to precipitate immobile historiographies insisting the frog
be boiled slowly and to polymerize narratives independent of the
exegesis of colonial rational domination- to suggest the presentation
of wine as intuitive ecologies of the senses and not the social.
