I've got one of those over-stuffed leather chairs from the Pottery Barn. It faces north. I live in San Francisco, so there's the Golden Gate Bridge off to the left, and there's Alcatraz off to the right, and I've got a pile of pulp fiction next to me, and there's usually a decent bottle of red wine next to the fireplace.

Mike Rowe

Hmmm... cooking with wine? I usually drink wine while cooking... I do a good braised short ribs with cabernet, though. We're big red wine drinkers here. All that research showing that it's good for you takes the guilt away.

A splash of red wine vinegar can pull things together like a pinch of salt.

Red wine vinegar has some personality as well acidity.

Alex Guarnaschelli

Wine Win Well

I've always loved my red wine, and when I'm not working I can open a bottle too many. I love to cook, so it's one for me and one for the casserole. I would consume a bottle of wine on my own of an evening and then literally pass out.

Amanda Donohoe

'Almost' is all about gradations and nuance and about suggestion and shades. Not quite a red wine, but not crimson, not purple either, or maroon; come to think of it, 'almost' Bordeaux.

Andre Aciman

Wine Win Think

I find that most home cooks don't get vinegars. They're misunderstood, mostly due to the factory-made red wine vinegar that everyone commonly cooks with... that, and the giant gallon of white distilled vinegar that we all use, mostly to clean and disinfect things!

Andrew Zimmern

Home Wit Wine

I'd rather enjoy meals, order bottles of red wine and eat creme brulee at the end of dinner. Then, when they call you for a photo shoot, you just go, 'Okay, time to hit the treadmill.'

Armie Hammer

Time You Wine

I'm on a lot of airplanes, so I just sip on red wine thinking of stupid ideas and, when I think of it, I wanna make it happen.

Bam Margera

Wine Win Wanna

The TV is often on in our house, but I really only keep up with three shows: 'American Idol,' 'Modern Family' and 'The Walking Dead.' Sometimes I'll sip red wine - it's a nice way to slow down and relax.

Carrie Underwood

The voice is an instrument that you really must take time to develop. It's like a good red wine Give it time.

Cecilia Bartoli

Time Men Good

A big percentage of the Argentine economy is founded on beef ranching, and they produce steaks the size of dustbin lids. Malbec is the finest red wine in the world, and most restaurants have a wide selection.

Chris Tarrant

Age World Wine

Grown-up parties are so dull they make me want to throw a tantrum and hurl red wine on the nearest cream-damask armchair.

Claudia Winkleman

Art Wine Win

When I decided to become vegetarian, I had to learn how to 'recook,' if you will. For example, I used to put red wine in a big pot with the meat that I'd cooked in fat, and it was, of course, delicious. When I gave up meat, I wondered what I would make. That turned out to be vegetables, really organic and fresh.

Cloris Leachman

You Would Wondered

I drink red wine every night and chamomile tea before bed.

Connie Nielsen

Mom Wine Win

I enjoyed retirement the right way... linguine con vongole, red wine and plenty of truffle cheese.

Craig Kilborn

Men Wine Win

When I'm with the wife, and we're having a romantic night, I occasionally think about a glass of red wine, but I'll order a sparkling water. I'd like the wine, but it wouldn't end with one glass, so I don't even go there.

Dave Gahan

Romantic Would Wit

I could probably die happy with a cheeseboard and a glass of French red wine - that's my idea of a perfect dinner.

Deirdre O'Kane

Wit Wine Win

A good margarita, a good red wine, I like expensive alcohol, but not a lot of it. I don't like to throw up.

Denise Richards

Good Wine Win

I drink red wine on ice to water it down.

Diane Keaton

Wine Win Water

There are so many ways of posturing that people associate with being a writer. They imagine you wearing a beret and drinking only red wine and being full of yourself, and so, for a long time, the way I felt about writing was too private. I felt it too important and didn't want to be teased about it. So I lied about it.

Eleanor Catton

Time Yourself Yours

When I'm out, I like a glass of red wine. Just before bed, I'll always have a chamomile tea.

Ellie Bamber

I drink a lot of water and a lot of wine. I'm a wine drinker. Red wine, preferably.

Engelbert Humperdinck

I wouldn't say that I'm an Italian wine connoisseur. I do like red wine. I guess my favorites now are Bordeauxes. French.

Erik Larson

I love a good steak with a great glass of red wine. But for the TV watching, laying around doing nothing kinds of days, nothing beats a pepperoni pizza and chocolate Haagen Daas.

Erin Daniels

I wasn't as used to the new dumb questions, so when men I had once thought of as wise daddies now asked me 'How do you write?' I did not try and spill red wine in their suede pants. I would just smile and say, 'On a typewriter in the mornings when there's nothing else to do.'

Eve Babitz

A good glass of red wine or maybe a little bit too much every now and then is just fine. Heavy boozing, not so much, because you don't recover enough from it.

Floor Jansen

The year 2014 was a big year for my taste buds. They really stepped up their game. Like, I got into red wine, coffee and sushi for the first time. Well done, George.

George Ezra

You don't do oysters and red wine together. That's a no-no; you just don't do that. I love a nice white wine with oysters.

Grace Jones

I usually eat in my friend Tom Corcoran's place - the Siam Thai in Monkstown. I go there for a very large plate of beef in red wine sauce.

Ian McKeever

A tender beef roast with a well-browned exterior is about as easy to pair with wine as a dish can be. You have your pick of just about any medium- to full-bodied red wine, from any place.

J. Kenji Lopez-Alt

When I moved to Paris at 16, I held a dinner party in my first apartment and served only red wine, French fries, and mashed potatoes. Unable to cook, I relied on people taking me out.

Jerry Hall

The only advice I can give to aspiring writers is don't do it unless you're willing to give your whole life to it. Red wine and garlic also helps.

Jim Harrison

It's all about the blanket. Blanket, pillow, and red wine. You should always be asleep on a plane.

Kate Moss

Sometimes it would be nice to just have some red wine with dinner, but it's not worth the risk. I have a great life, a great situation. Why would I want to risk self-destructive behaviour?

Kristin Davis

At my dinner parties, I like to serve cheese after the main course because you still have red wine in the glass, and it goes very well with the cheese. And that is what they do in France, and I think they set a good example.

Mary Berry

Have something that you enjoy, that satisfies you. For me, that is dark chocolate, red wine, and cheese. But make room in your life for vegetables and whole grains to nourish your body.

Mary Helen Bowers

One of the big things, especially if you're eating out frequently, is either splitting an entree with someone or ordering a protein-heavy appetizer for an entree, like a salmon or steak tartar. If I'm dying for a burger, I'll get the burger but have it with salad instead of fries and a glass of red wine instead of a beer.

Mary Helen Bowers

Slipcovers are great because they can be laundered after those all-too-frequent sippy cup and red wine incidents.

Mary Kay Andrews

Holiday? Is like, what? I'm a hyperactive girl, so it may be boring for me to be on the beach doing nothing. I just need to find a place for three weeks and work but sleep in the morning, maybe write a little bit, have a glass of red wine. That's my perfect holiday.

Melanie Laurent

I've got one of those over-stuffed leather chairs from the Pottery Barn. It faces north. I live in San Francisco, so there's the Golden Gate Bridge off to the left, and there's Alcatraz off to the right, and I've got a pile of pulp fiction next to me, and there's usually a decent bottle of red wine next to the fireplace.

Mike Rowe

Age can be wonderful for red wine, but not for spacecraft.

Nathan Myhrvold

I took a gap year myself after high school and worked on a farm near Lyon, France. I stayed with the Vallet family, picked and packed fruit, and discovered that red wine can be a breakfast drink. That led to further travel as a university student.

Nicholas Kristof

My wife and I really enjoy a glass of red wine. We're too old to drink cheap wine, and we don't.

Paul Henderson

Pirlo is a cool customer who does things in his own time. On the pitch, he just looks so relaxed, no matter what is going on around him. He is one of those greats who looks like he could run a midfield with a glass of red wine in one hand.

Paul Scholes

I'm not a red wine guy.

Rex Ryan

Italian wines are my favorites. I like a big, booming red wine that blows your taste buds away.

Rich Eisen

Difficult choices, unlike red wine, rarely improve with age.

Richard N. Haass

Of course I treat myself every now and then. Once a month I might have pizza and red wine and maybe a dessert, but that's it.

Ricki-Lee Coulter

I think the Japanese love young, tannic red wines much more than most Americans do. Perhaps it is because Asians have a great fondness for tea, and tea is a very tannic beverage. Therefore a young, tannic red wine is something familiar to an Asian palate.

Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Robin Leach is a guy who, when he has the time, goes quietly to his house in Connecticut and sits looking into the fire with a good glass of red wine in his hand. And when I wake up in the morning, I wink at myself because I like me - I know who I am.
