CAFÉ Talks Ep. 84 – The Wine Experience
Wednesday, 13 March 2024 08:57We lift a glass of wine and toast the wonders of a life well lived. In its color we see the care of the winemaker, its bouquet – the influence of terroir, its texture, the purity of the grapes from its humble beginning, and the experience the joy of being with those with whom we share it and the artistry of the craftsman. To a chef, wine is the most extraordinary friend to his or her work on the plate, the exclamation points to the flavor coaxed out of beautiful ingredients. Wine must be discovered, relished, cherished, and understood to fully enjoy the story that it has to offer.
Andre Simon the French born wine merchant once said:
“Wine makes every meal an occasion, every table more elegant, every day more civilized.”
and Clifton Fadiman, the American author stated succinctly:
“To take wine into our mouths is to savor a droplet of the river of human history.”
