Turly, that is too snobby a tradition for my taste. Hubby tried it and said he had fun, oh well.
I no nothing of alcholic beverages from anywhere.
I have long stopped buying grand wines from france , dad and mom.
Had fun with australian wine , especially the yellow tail sangira. I will absolutely NEVER ever waste my time tasting wines from france. Try south africans and pacific wines. Arabs dont have a traidtion of wine hence the blueberries only. There is alcohol but noone knows.
