“Wineaux: A wine lover who uses a glass”

“Wineaux: A wine lover who uses a glass” has been printed on many T-shirts. “WINEAUX—a wine lover who uses a glass” has been cited in print since at least 2002.

BTW, I have heard that the term “Wino” in French is “Wineaux” and it is defined as “A wine drinker who uses a glass”.  Oh, those French, they are SO sophisticated 😊
