Looking back on the tapas, sherries and cocktails from my favorite bars in Sevilla filled me with a sensation I gradually realized was not hunger, but love.
"That drew me to wine and coffee, this sort of visceral pleasure..Like when when I would listen to certain pieces of music and be moved to having shivers."
"At that point, whether you know or understand any of these chemical factors, that's when you slow down and be like, 'This wine doesn't taste like I expected.'"
Never wear new shoes to a wine fair. Thank goodness it was Kachi Izukanne’s first Vinitaly. If the pinch of his new white sneakers hadn’t driven him to find a chair...
