No explanation provided, alas, but this picture is worth … well, not as much as the wine.
This picture reminds me of one of the milestones in becoming a wine geek.
You know you have become a wine geek when you dream becomes a nightmare of burglers have emptied your cellar. Now, this picture has added another! Thanks Bill
Thirty years ago at a trattoria on the isle of Capri, Bill Ward had a lusty homemade red that rocked his world. Ever since this "so that's what wine's all about" moment, he has been seeking similar experiences, always aiming to approach wine with an innocent eye (and nose, and palate).

Bill Ward has yet to meet a grape he doesn't like. He's been writing about travel, food and wine for more than a decade and won a James Beard Award in 2004 for a series on Italian regional cuisine. His column Liquid Assets runs every Thursday in Taste section.
