Chin, chin, Torquemada!

The anti-Parker drumbeat goes on, eliciting a curious response:

But Parker - who did not respond to an e-mail from Page Six - fires back in the book: "Myths about me get embellished, exaggerated . . . No one in the history of wine has done more for the small artisanal producer - the kind of people you claim you like - than I have. You're trying to paint me [as] a big globalist, a tyrant, and a dictator . . . I hear that people make wine for me all of the time. It's like the Spanish Inquisition."

How so, Bob?

Watch, and decide for yourself.

There's no surprise from the Spanish Red Wine Inquisition, it's been brewing for years. I think the fear factor could be his undoing. 60 is a somewhat tricky age for a man with such reach.
