How sweet it is!
On the subject of sports, 26 year old French woman Amélie Mauresmo clearly has poise on the court winning her first Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open yesterday.
And clearly she has good taste off the court:
“I have a special bottle of wine I kept for my first Grand Slam title,” Mauresmo said of her Château d’Yquem 1937. “It’s at home waiting for me very quietly in the dark at the right temperature.” [NYT]
And at $3800 a bottle (find this wine) for this nectar-like dessert wine, she must be thinking how sweet it is! (Thanks, Skip!)
Hopefully she upgrades the stemware

…sorry Conchita Martinez, those Lafittes you opened after winning Wimbledon ain’t cutting it anymore. Allez Amélie! Leaving the wine alone while you trained for the Open sure tastes sweet now!
