There’s a reason that poets, philosophers, and novelists have been writing about wine for thousands of years. Perhaps there’s no words that fully encapsulate the feeling you get while enjoying a glass of Pinot Noir with your friends, or the magic that comes with uncorking a bottle to enjoy with dinner after a long day. It doesn’t just taste good. Wine helps to punctuate some of the best moments in life – whether that’s celebrating a big milestone, or finding joy in the small moments.
No matter what the occasion, this guide includes some of my favorite quotes about wine that will help you better define the moment.
