French hospital to open wine bar in bid to improve the lives of terminally ill patients

A hospital in south-central France has come up with an unconventional, not to mention extremely French, idea to try to improve the lives of terminally ill patients. It is to open a wine bar that will offer "medically supervised" wine tasting. The bar, which will open in September, will be located at the Palliative Care Centre at the CHU hospital in Clermont-Ferrand, will be open to patients, their friends and relatives.

Savoir-vivre, savoir mourir...
this is why I spend so much of my time in France.
