This is, strictly speaking, neither a Quiz nor a Puzzle problem, but I thought It could give all your gargantuan brain cells a work-out after you have finished the morning crosswords. I am looking for titles of Plays, Books, Films, Songs etc that can be tweaked to give a direct or vague reference to wine ie. "Come to the Caberet" becomes "Come to the Cabernet". You get the drift? They can be obvious or far fetched. I am sure some of you must have a passing interest in the grape,(hah) and hope you can help.
Many thanks.

The Comedy of Jerez
Going back to the 1920s what about The Easter Riesling
Alsace in Wonderland
Cava name with Pride
Most obvious The Grapes of Wrath (an after effect?) or Chaucer`s The Blue Nuns Tale & finally what about Riesling Damp (sorry)
