Marie Antoinette vs. Helen of Troy
The shape of the shallow and wide-mouthed Champagne glass is claimed by the French to be a tribute to the breast of Marie Antoinette, but the Greeks claim the glass is a tribute to the breast of Helen of Troy.

This is a great illustration. Where does it come from?

Hey Bob.
I’m not too sure, otherwise I would have given credit in the article. Someone has uploaded it on Pinterest and it didn’t link back to any particular website.
You’re right though, it is a good illustration! I would actually buy a poster-sized copy for wine classes that I host.

Hello this is Alex from the wine forum http://www.winebasic101.com. I like the picture depicting the different process of making the wines. Red wines typical age longer than white wines. You can also use white wine grapes to make red wine and vis versa. Some populare white wine grapes include Riesling, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris. Populare red wine grapes include Merlot, Cabernate Sauvignon, and Malbec.
