In another life I worked as a wine importer, taster and distributor. If not for a paranoid, significantly insane boss, with little sense for business, I may not be involved with CR4.
I'm well aware of the "mood enhancing" medicinal value of wine, but have always been skeptical of claims that it is truly "good for you". We've been told that the skins of red grapes are great for lowering cholesterol, thinning blood, staving off cancer, etc., but I just don't buy it.
Apparently, humans aren't the only ones for whom wine is beneficial. According to a spokesman from the Budapest Zoo, wine is used to boost the immune systems of monkeys & apes. No hard science (or even soft) presented. Simply that it's "good for them". No doubt, they're happy monkeys, especially since they have tea time as well, but healthier, well...
