Remember these ladies are to be charming. Some claim that ladies with a fuller figure are indeed more charming
Of interest to TallisBottles from the cradle of wine: Armenia and Georgia - the guardian

I'm not sure whether Tallis is keen on wines described as 'chewy' to be honest. He muttered something about it being embarrassing to get the bits caught in your teeth But a fascinating article none the less :-)
No, I should imagine not.Few peoples seem to have so many historic enemies who still manage to hate them. It speaks highly of their misspent youth ;-)
Tallis felt he might as well get a word in edgewaysIrrational hate from a previous age
Lurks in the bowels like gratuitous rage
Seethes and coalesces
As sanctified bile
As they bellow their grievances
Nursed for a while
Bitter and caustic
It twists and decays
The dreams of the children
On the brightest of days
Brings death and destruction
Wanton and fey
A hallowed construction
Of worshiped decay
No. Wine should not be chewy. If it is then something has gone badly wrong.Wine GUMS should be chewy.
Apparently the stuff Patti mentioned is 'chewy'Obviously I'm not blaming her personally, but still....
I think Tallis would be forced to comment if one of his patrons started serving 'chewy' wine.
It's as bad as being able to see the tramlines!
Wine might be chewy if the butler has inexpertly removed the cork. In which case he should be dismissed, without a reference, immediately.
Sadly now one cannot get the staff.In the days of my youth a respectable family would have a Sommelier, a butler, two minstrel maids and a travelling flagellant
I'm not entirely sure what a flagellant is. Is it someone who moves around by waving tentacles around? Or am I thinking of flagella?
Needless to say it's not the sort of entertainment that your well adjusted poet gets involved in.A mess of blood
As sins you swat
But entertainment?
No, it's not
