The International Committee has met

Today is National Drink Wine Day. This is opposed to National Wine Day, which is May 25th. Yeah, yeah, before you make the joke, I know, it’s National Drink Wine Day every day in my home. I can make wine disappear. What’s your superpower?

While, I can’t find the basis for the holiday, I have my suspicions: George, the English Duke of Clarence, was convicted of treason against his brother King Edward IV and murdered in the Tower of London on February 18, 1478.

The legend arose that he had been drowned in a barrel of Malmsey wine.

And so it goes
