* The Wine of the Country

on BBC Radio 3

' Though England purchases nothing better than beer and France nothing better than Burgundy, it is difficult to imagine two beverages which agree worse together. Had we taken the train we should probably have fallen asleep and been waked ignominiously and in a flustered condition by the ticket- collector.'
Sir Ralph Richardson reads a further extract from GEORGE SAINTSBURYS Notes on a Cellar Book, first published in 1920.
