There was a time when I drank Csopaki during the whole winter, a slightly yellowish pink, sparkling wine, which, with ist remarkable sense of promotion, kept the right balance between sweetness and dryness. The proper quantity to drink, as I noticed, was exactly three and a half decilitres. I carried out some experiments on others as well, and no one fell outside this norm. Three and a half decilitres of this wine. Such is the Csopaki. So exact, it is a two-and-two-make-four wine.
