Burgundy makes you think of silly things, Bordeaux makes you talk of them and Champagne makes you do them.
– Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
“I drank a bottle of wine for company. It was Chateau Margaux. It was pleasant to be drinking slowly and to be tasting the wine and to be drinking alone. A bottle of wine was good company.”
-Ernest Hemingway
“If penicillin can cure those that are ill, Spanish sherry can bring the dead back to life.”
-Sir Alexander Fleming
Wine comes in at the mouth
And love comes in at the eye;
That’s all we shall know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you, and sigh.
-William Butler Yeats
May our love be like good wine, grow stronger as it grows older.
-Old English Toast
