Cheers to Love… and Longevity 🥂✨
Love and wine—two things that age beautifully when shared. And now, science is catching up with what we’ve always known, darling: the couple that sips together, stays together.
💡 The Study
A University of Michigan study tracked over 4,600 couples aged 50+ for twenty years and found something fascinating:
Partners with matching drinking habits—whether both drink, or both don’t—tend to live longer and enjoy smoother relationships.
It’s not about drinking more, it’s about shared rituals. That quiet glass of Sancerre on the balcony, the weekend Syrah with steak, even the choice to abstain—when both partners are aligned, the bond grows stronger.
The mismatched pairs? More conflict, less harmony, and apparently, shorter-lived bliss.
🥂 The Love Language of Wine
Forget “words of affirmation” or “acts of service.” The true modern love language might just be:
“Sancerre or Syrah, together.”
Because it’s not the wine itself, it’s the act of raising the same glass, sharing the same rhythm, and clinking to the same life.
💌 And for the Singles…
Don’t despair, darling. This doesn’t mean love is locked behind a cork. It just means you get to set the terms of your own ritual. Personally, I’ve updated my Bumble bio to:
“Seeks drinking partnership, preferably Syrah-friendly on Thursdays.”
Because love—like wine—always tastes better when shared.
So whether it’s Sauvignon Sundays or Malbec Mondays, the message is simple: find your match, share your glass, and sip your way to forever. Santé! 💋
