Sip by Sip : An Insider's Guide to Learning All About Wine

by Michael Bonadies
Paperback - 224 pages 1 Ed edition (October 20, 1998) Main Street Books; ISBN: 0385487509 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.66 x 9.29 x 7.32 Wine should be fun. It civilizes, relaxes, tastes good, and is one of the world's great pleasures. That's Michael Bonadies's philosophy, and his goal is to "cut through the gobbledygook and make wine fun and accessible" for everyone. Presented in workbook format, the information in Sip by Sip is clear, down-to-earth, irreverent in tone, served to the reader in digestible doses, and designed to take the so-called wine snob down a peg. The book is full of important and useful information on every subject from how various wines are produced to how they taste, how they are served, and how they differ from one another. Obscure terms are clarified, wine jargon is demystified, seemingly abstruse subjects are clarified--all while the reader is being entertained and developing a deeper enjoyment of wine itself.
