Beaujolais is the only white wine that happens to be red.

You could say one wine is like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz while another is like the mature Judy Garland, or that a big voluptuous chardonnay is like Marilyn Monroe -round, bosomy - you can remember that chardonnay, If you say a wine is snappy and lively, like Robin Williams, that's very different than the Anthony Hopkins of wine - urbane, sophisticated, measured, considered.

Beaujolais is the only white wine that happens to be red.

A wine is ready when you can't bear to wait for it any longer.
