The French Get One Right

Via Juan Non-Volokh I see that the French government is considering classifying wine as nourishment. Given recent health studies that show small quantities of wine are actually good for you, I don't see much of a problem with that. Spain has already taken such action. But given that we don't even let 20 year-olds buy it, and that we put "sin" taxes on it, I doubt our government will take any sort of similar action.
