    *** One of the great columnists of the 20th century, Art Buchwald, on wine writing:

     "When it came to writing about wine, I did what almost everybody does - faked it."


     *** Chef and author Jasper White, on matching food and wine:

     "I haven't had much luck in pairing red wine with lobster."


     *** Actress Brigitte Bardot, on the impact of sparkling wine:

     "Champagne is the only thing that gives me zest when I am tired."


     *** Madame de Pompadour, with another viewpoint on sparkling wine:

     "Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman beautiful after drinking it."


     *** And one final sparkling observation, this from singer Tina Turner:

     "Whenever I drink Champagne, I either laugh or cry... get so emotional! I love Champagne."
