So you think you can drink? Sorry but you're still
a learner. 65-year-old Gerard Depardieu, the titan
of French cinema and renowned bon vivant,
claims he sometimes drinks
up to 14 bottles of wine a day.
His fondness for wine is such that he runs his
own award-winning vineyard in the Medoc but he
has stopped drinking that much because of the
precautions he had to follow after undergoing five
heart bypass operation.
During an interview with French magazine So
Film, he said:
"I can’t drink like a normal person. I can absorb
12, 13, 14 bottles per day.
In the morning, it starts at home with champagne
or red wine before 10am, then again champagne.
I break up the wine intake with a little aniseed
liqueur pastis.
Then food, accompanied by two
bottles of wine. In the afternoon, champagne,
beer and more pastis at around 5pm, to finish off
the bottle.
Later on, vodka and/or whisky. But I’m never
totally drunk, just a little p*d.
All you need is a 10-minute nap and voila, a slurp
of rose wine and I feel as fresh as a daisy.
Anyway, I’m not going to die. Not now. I still
have energy."
