“At sea a fellow comes out. Sal water is like wine, in that respect.” – Herman Melville
One of the most celebrated authors of the nineteenth century, Herman Melville knows a thing or two about the sea, having worked as a crew member for many years. Author of the acclaimed Moby Dick, Melville recounts life at sea in such a way as to capture his audience and surround them with tales and recounts from sailors.
Melville’s work featured characters who were introspective, often trying to decipher the nature of man through truth. Perhaps it is this thought which links the sea and wine. Both are elements which bring out the honesty in anyone who comes in contact with them.
