Len must have poured more great wine down unsophisticated throats than anyone in history: I have a beer-loving friend who still has no idea he has drunk Romane?-Conti. Len wasn't stupid-his glass tended magically to look a little fuller than the next-but he'd rather have called someone in off the street than drink a great bottle by himself.
