The Wine Handbook: A Field Guide to Demystifying Wine

You don't have to be a wine expert to enjoy wine, but learning how to taste wine helps you to enjoy it more. Wine is the artistic representation of a landscape: It tells a story of sun, rain and soil and shows us the passion of those who created it. Appreciating the artistry in a glass of wine turns the basic routine of eating and drinking from an everyday occurrence to a celebration of life. The energy we put into understanding and appreciating wine - as opposed to simply swallowing it - makes life a little richer. This book eliminates the intimidation of drinking fine wine, no matter if you prefer red wine, white wine or you don't know the difference! It is a great wine tasting guide for begining wine tasters and it also contains reference material for everyone. It is written in an easy to read format, and will explain how wine travels from the vineyard to the glass. This wine guide teaches you what to look for when tasting wine and it walks you through such wine rituals as ordering from a sommelier, going to or having a wine tasting and how to pair wine with food.
