Claret Food Quotes


“Claret, dear, not Coca-Cola, When you're having Gorgonzola....”

William Cole, 'What a Friend We Have in Cheeses!'

 

"How I like claret!...It fills one's mouth with a gushing freshness, then goes down to cool and feverless; then, you do not feel it quarreling with one's liver. No; 'tis rather a peace-maker, and lies as quiet as it did in the grape. Then it is as fragrant as the Queen Bee, and the more ethereal part mounts into the brain, not assaulting the cerebral apartments, like a bully looking for his trull, and hurrying from door to door, bouncing against the wainscott, but rather walks like Aladdin about his enchanted palace, so gently that you do not feel his step."

John Keats (1795-1821)

 

“Claret is the liquor for boys; port for men; but he who aspires to be a hero must drink brandy.”

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)  Quoted in James Boswell's ‘Life of Samuel Johnson’

 

“At that comfortable tavern on Pontchartrain we had a bouillabaisse than which a better was never eaten at Marseilles; and not the least headache in the morning, I give you my word; on the contrary, you only wake with a sweet refreshing thirst for claret and water.”

William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863)
