No poems can live long or please that are written by
water-drinkers. Horace, Roman poet I like [champagne] because it
always tastes as though my foot is asleep. Art Buchwald In Wine
Froth, Washington Post wine columnist Dick Rosano celebrates 8,000
years of wine-stained history with this droll, profound, bizarre,
hilarious, charming, and totally entertaining collection of wine
quotes, anecdotes, and trivia. Here s another sample: Richard Nixon
knew his wines, and which were being served at White House dinner
functions. He instructed the serving staff to hide the labels of
certain bottles, and that he was to be poured the best of them, and
particular guests were to get the other stuff. Also included in
this richly illustrated little book are scores of tips to help make
wine a little easier to enjoy, such as: adding kosher salt to your
bucket of ice will chill wine faster. Merlot is French for little
blackbird"
