Coles On the Uses of Wines in Health and Disease: Reprinted From the Practitioner (Classic Reprint) at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Excerpt from On the Uses of Wines in Health and Disease: Reprinted From the Practitioner One of the richest in sugar of all the natural wines is bordeaux-sauterne, a white wine of great popularity, from its fragrant bouquet and flavor. Bence Jones's analysis of a sample of a fine Sauterne (72s. Per doz.) gives 125 grains of sugar to the bottle; and the taste of this wine, until it has been many years in bottle, is distinctly sweet, too much so, indeed, for the taste of many wine-drinkers. On the other hand, among the fortified wines we occasionally meet with sherries of extreme dryness, containing, in fact, almost no sugar at all: such, for instance, as an amontillado (marked very good in Bence Jones's tables). But such wines, wlien genuine, are too expensive for common use. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
