4 Delectable Rodents and the Wines that Go With Them

Rodents have been tragically misunderstood. Not even a film Ratatouille could shift a perception which all rodents have been vicious, sewer-dwelling beasts which feverishly gnaw upon everything from cement to tellurian ankles.

That is unfortunate, since via a world, there have been other class of rodent which dont share a inhuman demeanor of their apart distant cousin, a rat, as well as instead live much some-more cleanly than industrially raised chickens.
