Stretch marks.... ugh.

The muscles though on guts like that.... It's not just fat.  The muscles are all stretched out.  It would take forever to get that put back, if that's even possible.

This intrigues me.    Can you by any chance translate from Portuguese? 
I think Quinta is 5, and Murta  is  Myrtle.  So is the wine made from Myrtle,  or the Myrtle berry?

I wonder why they name it  the wine of Shakespeare.

Quinta da Murta is the name of the estate. The wine itself is a bucelas, made from the Arinto grape. One of the varieties of this is mentioned in Henry VI Part 2 (according to their website).

Well observed. Thank you for that information, it is interesting to me because I am a bit of a Shakespeare buff.
