"Aku melayang di atas Scotch yang mahal dan kemudian Armagnac, tetapi akhirnya memilih segelas anggur merah yang kaya. Aku meletakkannya di dekat hidungku dan hampir pingsan. Baunya rumah-rumah tua dan kayu tua dan rahasia gelap, tetapi juga sinar matahari yang panas dan keras melalui daun jendela kuno dan sore yang panjang dan jahat di tempat tidur bertiang empat. Ini bukan anggur, itu kehidupan, di sana di gelas."

Versi Bahasa Inggris
I hover over the expensive Scotch and then the Armagnac, but finally settle on a glass of rich red claret. I put it near my nose and nearly pass out. It smells of old houses and aged wood and dark secrets, but also of hard, hot sunshine through ancient shutters and long, wicked afternoons in a four-poster bed. It's not a wine, it's a life, right there in the glass.
