Do you know how the American 'Starboard' wine came to be named? What did the eminent scientist William Lemeck discover about champagne? Who said, "Whether wine is a nourishment, medicine or poison is a matter of dosage."? The answers can all be found in Wine - 101 Truths, Myths and Legends.

With sections on names of wines, champagne, colour, history, labels, quotes, cost, and much more, you can't help but find out some fascinating new facts about wine and the myths and legends surrounding it.
