|Friday| The Great Gatsby ― F. Scott Fitzgerald

Posted in Wine by Vinum Vine on May 10, 2013

“There was music from my neighbor’s house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.”

“It’s a great advantage not to drink among hard-drinking people. You can hold your tongue, and, moreover, you can time any little irregularity of your own so that everybody else is so blind that they don’t see or care.”

It’s a name for tiny little grape.  Don’t let marketing fools you to think that it’s relating to the berries.
