The smell of young wine is called an “aroma” while a more mature wine offers a more subtle “bouquet.”[1]
A “cork-tease” is someone who constantly talks about the wine he or she will open but never does.[6]
Red wines are red because fermentation extracts color from the grape skins. White wines are not fermented with the skins present.[6]
In the whole of the Biblical Old Testament, only the Book of Jonah has no reference to the vine or wine.[5]
There is increasing scientific evidence that moderate, regular wine drinking can reduce the risk of heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, and gum disease.[6]
