Learning about wines

[Botafogo]

You won't see me pimping Andrea here. She almost made me break a brand new TV once when she made a drink on the Food Channel that our grandmothers would recognize as a Grasshopper (green creme de menth, heavy cream, ect), poured it into a triangular glass and pronounced it to be a "Mint-Tini". I threw a beer bottle at the TV! Definitions of words are important: Budweiser is NOT beer (the first ingredient is RICE), many famous "barolos" aren't Barolo by any stretch of the imagination and a martini is made with GIN, vermouth and an olive.
