*Such is the case with wine, a nectar so appreciated and ingrained in our culture that we don't even notice it and taste it spontaneously. We miss it when it's not there, not realizing what it's all about. It unblocks conversations, makes the moments long and the conversations deep, fills us with pleasure and becomes the King of the Party in every being.
