Red Wine Lip

A dear friend of mine was having an issue with red wine lip. Although it may seem like an embarrassing experience, it's nothing more than a robust wine. Want someone to blame for your distinguishing shade of black lip? Look no further than the tannin. That's right, this simple little colour and flavour enhancer found in most fruits including red wine grapes is the dirty culprit. Does your wine pack a robust punch? Make your tongue tingle? If so, then I'd advise you to take a trip to the rest room because likely it has left a tar-like mark on your lips. Fear not wine lovers, for your messy lip is merely a mark of a 'leggy' batch. Drink on!
