...years ago, wine in Asia tended to refer to dusty bottles of Mateus Rosé or Liebfraumilch, decaying at the backs of corner stores and wedged between the boxes of mosquito coils and the tins of evaporated milk.

Today the wine world's great hope is the Asian drinker, for many of whom the consumption of grape wine is an aspirational and pleasurably exotic activity, much like sake drinking is in European or American cocktail bars. Facing stagnant sales at home, the Old World's lordliest vintners must leave their crumbling châteaus...

Though the days when rosé was scorned are gone, the good stuff tends not to travel, and there's still some not-so-good stuff around (Saddam Hussein was said to be fond of Mateus rosé, a vestige of the bad old days).

His hair is bleached, his skin tanned from weekend sun on his Pocantico Hills golf course with his two sons and Club Pro Chi Chi Rodriguez. A medical lab, after studying his charts and X rays, reported: "This man is 40 years...
...Dateline. In Milwaukee, an intruder who awakened Elaine Mateus, 21, listened to her "crime doesn't pay" lecture, left after commenting plaintively: "I'd like to ask you for a date, but I suppose it's too late...
