Wine, Of Course.

A bit more wisdom!

" Give me books, French wine, fruit, fine weather and a little music played out of doors by somebody I do not know. "
John Keats
" Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things in the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection,
and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation, than, possibly, any other sensory thing. "

Ernest Hemingway
" Age appears best in four things: old wood to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust and old authors to read. "
Francis Bacon
" It is no coincident that, on all four sides, in all four corners, the borders of the Roman Empire stopped where wine could no longer be made. "
Neel Burton
" Wine makes daily living easier, less hurried, with fewer tensions and more tolerance. "
Benjamin Franklin
" Wine... the intellectual part of the meal."
Alexander Dumas
" Wine makes a man more pleased with himself; I do not say that it makes him more pleasing to others."
Samuel Johnson
" When it comes to wine, I tell people to throw away the vintage charts and invest in a corkscrew. The best way to learn about wine is the drinking. "
Alex Lichine
