Street's unique voice comes through in every sentence, such as, \"\u003cem\u003eIt is the fate of Champagne to live gayly and die young. Champagne at ten years old is well along in life, and at twenty it is likely to be dead.\u003c\/em\u003e\" Regarding red wine, Street writes, \"\u003cem\u003eOne of the Frenchiest qualities of French wines is the dislike that many of them have for travel. The red wines often become seasick or trainsick, and must lie down and rest for a long time to recover from a journey. White wines generally stand travel better than the more robust-appearing reds, for which reason it is generally advisable to order white wines on ships and dining cars.\u003c\/em\u003e\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eName to front free endpaper (dated 1934), upper corner of front free endpaper neatly clipped, else near fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(1)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ebay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47282670043394,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/0463\/6790\/files\/IMG_0974.jpg?v=1769200833","url":"https:\/\/omnivorebooks.myshopify.com\/products\/new-arrival-wine-julian-street-civilized-drinking-the-selection-and-service-of-wines","provider":"Omnivore Books on Food","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
