There's something about this liquid. The dark swirl of the slightly frothy sweet- tangy- sour elixir which hits you just as you think that you are in perfect control, is just something else.
Come happiness or sorrow, there's nothing that a glass of red wine can't solve. Whether it's an accompaniment to cheesy lasagna or irresistible tandoori chicken, there's something about this humble glass which lifts your spirits, making them soar so high that you feel like you are leaving the sky far below and way behind.
The aftertaste of wine is something I'd like to call afterwine. It's a slightly dry (depending on your kind of wine) or a slightly sour flavour which leaves a thin film of residue like dull senses mostly.
What follows after a rigorous wine drinking session is a good siesta- where the senses are lulled into a false feeling of calm.
Oh boy, red wine, I love you so!
