A friend gave me a bottle of Canadian wine - I know, I'm sceptical too and I'm Canadian even - with a very entertaining label. This wine claims to have "a rich, round mouthfeel that lingers beautifully". Who among you is for a lingering, round mouthfeel?

I was in a restuarant in Amsterdam once with a Frenchman, who was going on and on about how the best wine the world comes from France, and the best wine in France comes from whatever part of France he lived in.

We chose the wine to accompany our meal, the waiter produced the bottle and shook it, like it was a bottle of orange juice. The poor old Frenchman nearly had a heart attack.

You'd murder for a good whine wouldn't you DG?

Don't forget these two:
* You'll never get a more monstrous hangover than through wine.
* Wine is produced by the process of some mucky devil trampling up and down on a vatful of grapes in his filthy bare feet! Ugh!

Call me uncultured, but I can't touch wine, white or red - the smell of it is too much. After I drink it in any quantity I'll throw it straight back up. For me it's Guinness or nowt.

some wines simply do not get better with age.

beaujolais nouveau is a hyped-up wine that tastes like crap.

a bordeaux/white wine is always the best to take to friends holding a dinner/party.

letting wine settle and breath for a while is a MUST.

Made me laugh! (But you missed "cherry" and "blackberry" from your second drop-down box!)

£5 bottle of Jacobs Creek from the "offie" down the High Street - does me fine most weekends!

1) Remember that wine is only a concentrate, like cordial, and it doesn't taste quite right until you've made it into a spritzer.

2) Never fill your wine glass above the halfway mark, or it will spill over the dashboard as you drive along.

I've just heard about your tea dilema, and I've posted a note to the machine tea experiment to help. I certainly hope you can solve your tea problem. A tea-deprived worker is certainly not as productive and able as they could be, and it would benefit the company to provide you with the ability to make proper tea.
