There once was a wine lover from Nantucket …
Don’t wine and poetry go together? I mean, wine IS bottled poetry, right?
Well, Wine Enthusiast magazine thinks so. It has come up with a Wine Limerick contest. A VERY fine idea for a Monday, don’t you think?
We, of course, need to practice before we enter our limericks into the magazine’s contest. Here, I’ll go first.
There once was a girl from Nantucket
Who liked to stomp grapes in a bucket
If the must will ferment
We’ll make room in the tent …
um…. um….. um….. Aw, heck, I’m stuck. Any suggestions?
Cheers!

There once was a grape from ye olde vine, whose color and ripeness was devine, with dreams of being great, in French oak he would wait, alas concord goes best in grape jam.

( I know, I know, I promised that I would stop - I lied…so sue me) My palate is expert in judging wine. Overripe & alcoholic are just divine. Fill my nostrils with oak tree, Says me, James Laube, I think I will give it a ninety nine!

They stood as a hestitant couple, Past lovers had only caused troubles. But their love it was forged, When the champagne was disgorged, Wed by the resplendence of bubbles. OK, I promise that I’ll stop with the limericks now :D

To Napa, I certainly know the way, Far Niente, my worries just float away, Visit Caymus, I may, It’s near Chappellet, My teeth are the color of Cabernet.

Wine is good for you, Makes a man healthy and wise, And ladies love it. Oh, wait… If there’s a tail on the lable you’ve got sh** on your table!

A winemaker got no satisfaction, His yeast strain yielded inaction, Fementation was stuck, so he said what the ——, and that’s how we got Kendall-Jackson.
