Many years ago the "French-Paradox Theory" of French Scientist Serge Renaud, showed that wine reduces the death rate! It started a huge controversy that is still challenged today! So the saga goes on, but so does growing grapes, making wine and drinking the delicious results. For a wonderful sample of a French provincial style tasting room which over looks the vineyards, go to Pontchartrain Vineyards, 81250 Old Military Road...North of Covington. You will need the phone number(985-892-9742); even if you do not get lost, you will think you are! Remember, the anticipation of wine tasting just makes for a delightful love affair.
"Sorrow can be alleviated by good sleep, a bath and a glass of good wine." St. Thomas Aquinas
"When a man drinks wine at dinner, he begins to be better pleased with himself." Plato
