winking wines

how do you get people to start a discussion?  bring up something controversial or something that's got some amount of voyeurism in it or just open a bottle of wine?  i want myself to think and believe otherwise, but i have noticed off late that the 'wine bottle' solution seems to have a very high success rate.  be it the subtlety and ting in its taste or the fact that its classy and french (!), but it does get people talking and mocking!

although they have complex names that are bloody damn difficult to pronounce correctly and more often that not sound very hilarious - this form of the liquid is quite handful to the tongue!  it is suppose to be had by rolling over the tongue, but whoever i have asked how one does that, has simply shrugged off saying that "i don't do that, i just drink...".  nevertheless, i feel that the tongue is given a lot of exercise by the wines of the world - its got this tingy and tickling touch to it that makes the taste buds dance!

sleep has taken me over now, and the tongue refuses to type anymore (now u know how sleepy i am)!  anyway, have a lovely night!  :)

  1. oh yes. you must be too damn sleepy after all that talk about wines.
    i will teach you about wines if you want. :d
    I'm an oenophile of repute, even though I don't prefer them too much to a lot of others. But I can tell one from the other with ease and precision.
    :) But ya, this thing about how it can be used as an ice-breaker is wonder. this kind of insight is invaluable :)
