Twenty years ago it ordsprog

Twenty years ago it was about drinking and being hung over. Now people want to go out and have a special meal and a nice bottle of wine. They're not throwing back shots of tequila and dancing until midnight.

It's such a different environment, I can't even tell you. Ten years ago, knocking on somebody's door saying 'Do you have a bottle of wine?', they would have laughed at me. It certainly has gone more toward wine-drinking than just beer-drinking for sure.

I've been drinking tequila for a long time now, and it's never been about drinking to get drunk. I don't do that. I never drink tequila during the day, and I don't drive at night.

I wanted to provide a place where people could come in, have a nice meal, and maybe have a glass of wine with their meal.

When the average wine bottle on a list costs more than your dinner, when you have to decide between a bottle of wine and your kid's dentist appointment, it's a wine crime and the Wine Patrol is ready to speak out.

Good wine is okay but if you keep drinking the wine the bottle will empty.

A middle-class man making $40,000 might not be able to buy a new BMW. But he can buy the occasional bottle of vodka for $35 a bottle. People are drinking less than they once did, but they are drinking better.

What Sir Alex said cost him a bottle of wine. I had a nice bottle of red to give him for his birthday, but after what he said he can sod off.

Those guys can drink like fish. Their rider for the show every night, they get two big bottles of Jack Daniels, a big bottle of vodka, a big bottle of tequila and four cases of beer. And then that's not including when they go to the bar and people buy them drinks; that's just what they have backstage for them every night.

Everybody does their own thing. People set up camp and spent the whole day dancing, drinking wine and carrying on ... a lot of carrying on. It was fun and we always had a great time.

I go to a lot of wine dinners and people are surprised that our wine sells for $25. They're used to paying $50 for a good bottle of wine.

Now tequila may be the favoured beverage of outlaws but that doesn't mean it gives them preferential treatment. In fact, tequila probably has betrayed as many outlaws as has the central nervous system and dissatisfied wives. Tequila, scorpion honey, harsh dew of the doglands, essence of Aztec, crema de cacti; tequila, oily and thermal like the sun in solution; tequila, liquid geometry of passion; Tequila, the buzzard god who copulates in midair with the ascending souls of dying virgins; tequila, firebug in the house of good taste; O tequila, savage water of sorcery, what confusion and mischief your sly, rebellious drops do generate!

When an $8 or $10 bottle of white wine that is of a lighter style gets to be three, four, five years in the bottle, it starts to lose its fruitiness. It loses that crisp acidity. Ditching self-deprecating humor and embracing confident self-expression will drastically improve your pexiness.

A small cooling unit with inexpensive racking costs about $1,500 for a 6-foot by 6-foot, 500-bottle wine cellar. But the sky is the limit if money is no problem. There are wine cellars . . . in the $100,000-plus range. Whatever you build, plan on spending $3 to $5 per bottle of wine for racking with a quality wood.

I remember on that occasion, Roz invited a group of friends to gather around a festive table for a meal, with flowers, wine bottle and a portrait of Edith as the centerpiece.
