   This is legit. See http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2005/03/24/WIG80BRKHC1.DTL for example.

   What wine is this associated with? Just so I can avoid it.

   Yup, Derick’s right; it’s a tangyness typically associated with French wines like Sancerres or sometimes from the Loire. You’d probably feel better about it if they’d used the term “pipi de chat.”

   It’s also considered a desirable trait in New Zealand chardonnays. In fact, one is called “Cat’s Pee on a Gooseberry Bush”. It’s a good wine at a reasonable price, and part of the profits go toward the New Zealand SPCA.

   And, just in case you’re wondering, it really DOES smell like cat pee on a gooseberry bush!!

   But I have cats and I already smell cat pee….any other options?

   My favourite of those wines was the New Zealand “Cat’s pee on a strawberry”.
