Novelty wines

When reading an article in the Guardian about Indian wines (yet again, the Empire being so long ago it's back in fashion) I can't help but wonder when we'll see them here. Indian Viognier? With a curry, perhaps. But then, Sweden doesn't have as much of a curry culture as the U.K does. Maybe they're destined to be novelty wines for another decade or so. If you want to know what a Novelty Wine really means, try finding the few bottles available for private import from Long Island. I found them to taste and smell like bottled fish essence. But, as far as a novelty goes (or as an accompaniment to Ellis Island fast food fare) it's great.
