Wine place in history and culture


Wine raised a lot of great history . Jesus is presented
Blood Supper, as long as The Christian world. Napoleon was with him;
Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence of alcohol.
The Spanish Armada left the wine Emperor of Russia to celebrate. Baseball teams with partners to celebrate with him to drink.

Bonds was with us and give us the opportunity to crystallize moments. Wine may be
Reflection and liberation. Add a new soul memory.
For centuries, wine was a popular drink, poets, authors,
Artists, performers and composers. Great minds throughout the centuries
Sing praises to God  :

“[Wine] awakens and refreshes the lurking passions of the mind,
as varnish does the colours which are sunk in a picture, and
brings them out in all their natural glowings.” —Alexander Pope
“The soft extractive note of an aged cork being withdrawn has
the true sound of a man opening his heart.” —William Samuel
Benwell
“Wine is Sunlight, held together by water.” —Galileo
“He will tether his donkey to a vine,
his colt to the choicest branch;
he will wash his garments in wine,
his robes in the blood of grapes.” —Genesis 49:11
“What is the definition of a good wine? It should start and end
with a smile.” —William Sokolin
“Nobody ever wrote a great novel drinking water.” —Ernest
Hemingway
“I cook with wine; sometimes I even add it to the food.”
—W. C. Fields


APHRODISIA RECIPE

From Aphrodisia by Ken Atchity
1 bottle Pinot Noir, decanted in a crystal bowl
2 tablespoons honey
2 leaves of fresh mint
2 red or pink roses
1 teaspoon rose water
Pour the Pinot Noir into a saucepan over the lowest possible flame. Add
the honey, the mint (crushed gently in your fingers), and then the rose
water. Leave it on the flame until the honey is liquefied, and then add a
touch of cinammon and a touch of cardamom. Turn off the flame, and
sprinkle the petals of the two roses across the surface of the liquid. Pour
into goblets, preferably gold ones (though crystal will do as a substitute),
and serve.
