When the late author Robert Louis Stevenson used the phrase to describe Napa's wine, he was not only eloquent, he was accurate, albeit a bit narrow in scope.
All good wine is bottled poetry and gives men and women a chance to romance each other.
The same advice goes for women. Wine appeals to both men and women because it is poetic. Wine, like poetry, can be spare, a lean communiqu that appeals to men of few words. Yet wine, like poetry, is also romantic, packed with meaning, a riddle for women to solve. If you haven't seen the film by now, you've probably heard about it.
