White wine is not served.
"Some called for ale, and some for porter...", and Gandalf asks for "A little red wine, I think, for me."
You are correct
Name all the Kings of Numenor who ruled after usurping the throne (there is more than one).
Tar Anducal who took the sceptre after the death of his wife: Tar-Vanimelde, withholding the rule from his son.
Tar Calion/Ar-Pharazon who usurped the sceptre of Tar-Miriel.

Where they can do little harm.
Where they entertain us.

Ah yes, forgot Alphros (Elphir's son). I stopped looking after Elfwine because you said "grandson" (singular) in the question.
Yes correct

Ok. Besides the horse, what heraldric emblem is frequently used by the Rohirrim?
Hi, new to this thread, and making educated guesses;
Is it the golden sun on sheilds (This was on King Theoden's sheild in the battle of the Pelennor feilds, I think)?
Or if I may venture another guess, the horn (of helm hammerhand)?
It is, in fact, the sun. Aside from the fact that this emblem is featured prominently in the movies and on the Rohirrim units in TATW, it is specifically mentioned in the text of Two Towers.
The guards outside Theoden's hall are described: "Their golden hair was braided on their shoulders; the sun was blazoned on their green shields, their long corslets were burnished bright, and when they rose taller they seemed than mortal men." -King of the Golden Hall

The crime was disobeying Denethor and killing his servants in defense of Faramir, and his ''punishment" was being made Captain of Faramir's personal Guard in Ithilien.
Correct
