The Nose Knows

(photo Food and Wine magazine)

I'm a subscriber to Food & Wine magazine (because if you know me, you know that magazines are like crack for me), and I received my July issue in the mail on Friday, and inside the Wine Matters section was a wonderful article by Lettie Teague, the wine columnist for the Wall Street Journal, titled "The Sniff Test". It compares wine and perfume, two of my favorite things. I had no idea how similar the two can be, and the cult following some wines and perfumes have. It was "scentsational!" (Sorry I just couldn't resist!)

Anyway, it was an interesting read, and I think you should check it out. Also you should check it out because Lettie Teague is a really nice person. I should know because I emailed her after I read the article, thanking her for an interesting and well-written read, and SHE EMAILED ME BACK! I love it when celebrities (are newspaper/magazine writers celebrites? How about writer-ebrities) are kind and write back.

So, because she was so kind, here is her article on prosecco (probably my most favorite style of sparkling wine) from the Wall Street Journal

Enjoy!!
