Writing Contest - Something to wine about
Writing prompt:
Uncork your story.Sitting on a balcony in Malibu or Cinque Terre over looking the Pacific or Mediterranean and suddenly realizing you were in love with the waiter/waitress? An epiphany liberated by libation? (As Leonard Cohen calls it “a visionary flood of alcohol”). Confessions given or heard in the dark corner of a wine bar? The most memorable toast you ever heard, maybe at your marriage or divorce? Stomping grapes in a vat in Italy? A Sonoma fire that destroyed the legacy of four generations of growers? A wine inspired comedy or the tragedy of dealing with alcoholism, either your own or someone else’s? An affair you had with a cooper who thought he had you over a barrel? Tramping through the vineyards where the grapes of wrath are stored?
