You may recall the smiling photograph of Senator Obama on the campaign trail in North Carolina with his hand wrapped around a cold brew, which raised the question as to whether he was also into wine. People magazine--and by the way, CBS "60 Minutes" through its camera angle that caught a fleeting glimpse of a kitchen wine rack on national television--set that record straight. He drinks wine, which for many oenophiles is as refreshing as news from the Executive Mansion gets these days! Turns out that the new residents of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue will not be cellar aging wine anytime soon--the subterranean vault installed by our third president for his collection of over a thousand[..]

Versatile. Splendid. Classy. Comical. Ghastly. Alluring. Wines play a significant role in movies. They are cast with either good-guy or bad-guy roles.

Wines have been constantly discussed and featured in James Bond movies. The debonair spy is also one of the few heroes to[..]
