“Wine is like people. The wine takes all the influences in life all around it, it absorbs them and it gets its personality." ~ French Kiss (1995) – Luc (Kevin Kline)

"In Europe we thought of wine as something as healthy and normal as food and also a great giver of happiness and well being and delight. Drinking wine was not a snobbism nor a sign of sophistication nor a cult; it was as natural as eating and to me as necessary."
- Ernest Hemingway," A Moveable Feast

Red wines are often served too warm and whites are often served too cold. The easy rule to remember is: put reds in the refrigerator 20 minutes before serving and take the whites out of the refrigerator 20 minutes before serving. Try this for your wines this weekend! Cheers!

The best use of bad wine is to drive away poor relations -French proverb. Little wine is quite that bad these days, but many of us are guilty of jealously keeping our best wine for ourselves. Any confessions?

Question: I just discovered that champagne grapes are really tasty. I bet they would pair well with champagne… Do they make Champagne or is that a marketing thing?
It’s a marketing thing. Those sweet, pea-sized grapes that usually appear as a garnish (or in soft focus on greeting cards next to cheese and a glass of wine) are black Corinth grapes. When dried, they produce something confusingly called Zante currants.

Reader question: Why is a flight of wines called a “flight”?
It’s tempting to say other names really didn’t take off. But, in reality, a flight is a grouping of similar objects, like a flight of stairs or a flight of geese. Thus the same term applies to cabernets, pinots, or other small pours of wine, grouped together. It’s harder to get people excited about going through ‘battery of wines’ or a ‘litter of reds’.
