YWCA of O'ahu My husband picks up the glass and looks at me incredulously. "What is this mysterious white wine," he says with a raised eyebrow. I just stare at him with a small smile and I shrug. We do the customary swirl of the glass to bring out the smells and flavors, and then stick our noses in for the sniff. Wow, interesting smell. Kind of like... "feet!" my husband exclaims.
