Wine, an alcoholic beverage that has been known to grace all types of occasions for thousands of years, pairs best with comedy – like compatible bothers, wine and comedy have also always gone hand in hand.
Probably because when you consume a good amount of wine you are bound to act ridiculous. Who knows the reason, or cares!
Over the ages, so many people from different occupations and walks of life have written famous funny wine quotes or told funny jokes about wine. Although sometimes the comments can be on the sarcastic side, they are usually born out of the love the person has for the fermented, satisfying and ever tasty beverage.
Wine, coined from the Latin word vinum, is one of the most common, popular and precious man-made beverages in the world; as with most great discoveries, its origin story has a lot of variations.
In fact, there are about as many variations as there are varietals, based on what region the stories are being told. There are Bordeaux reds and whites, Burgundian reds and whites, Champagne – which is sparkling wine only, Chianti and Sangiovese which are the same grape but made in different regions.
From red to white to rose, grape wine to starch based wine, there is literally an entire world to discover. And don’t forget, fruit wine and Mead are a part of the story too!
