Alec Waugh: Noble Spirits
...The first duty of wine is to be red. The second is to be a Burgundy...
...I am prepared to believe that a dry martini slightly impairs the palate, but think what it does for the soul...
Alec Waugh, In Praise of Wine and Certain Noble Spirits (1957)

Another interesting-sounding suggestion for some relaxed reading from you! Also a well-put-together post: I specially like the last quote in combination with the photograph beneath it.
Best wishes, Giovanni Capranegra.
