OK, I live in Bordeaux, so I'm kind of biased. I drink wine frequently, and any number of studies have showed that moderate drinking of wine (and beer) is good for you.
Obviously, a lot depends on what you define as moderate.
At least once a week, I finish a bottle of wine with my wife, and drink a glass or two with most meals.
Do many of you enjoy wine on a regular basis? How do you view the issue of wine and health?
Whereas wine consumption keeps going down in France, it is steadily rising in the United States, so there is hope there!
I might add that my love of fine food came significantly later than my love of fine wine. That is to say, I've always enjoyed eating, but it was only relatively late in the game that I became interested in making special food, and thinking about wine and food matches.
Best regards,
Alex R.
