"Hail, color of sparkling wine, hail, flavor without equal, try to intoxicate us with your strength. What a wonderful fruit the pure vine has produced, every table becomes joyful with your presence. What a wonderful color, what a fragrant perfume, what a taste in the mouth and sweet on the tongue. Happy the belly in which you will enter, happy the throat you will furrow, happy the mouth and lips you will wash. Therefore, let us praise the wine, let us exult for the drinkers, let us send to hell those who do not drink!"

Carmina Burana
