Description

Unlike most books on wine nowadays, Tales from the Wine Floor is geared toward true beginners—those who enjoy wine but lack the most basic understanding of it.

This book offers an easy-to-digest crash course on wine and ready-reference written by a Sommelier.

The author explains the intricacies of wine to the average Joe (or Joanne) in a way that is easy to understand and somewhat entertaining.

Here is an easy reference Q&A based on real questions (often absurd or hysterically funny) asked by regular, wine-drinking people and the answers the author gives them in his job as “The Wine Guy.” Among the questions and answers that comprise this book are: What Are Sulfites?

Why Does the Same Wine Sometimes Taste Different? How Do I order Wine at a Restaurant? How Do I Host a Wine Tasting at Home? And, Why is Champagne Served on a Funny-Shaped Glass?

Illustrated with amusing drawings by New Yorker cartoonist John O’Brien, novice wine enthusiasts will find Tales from the Wine Floor informative yet entertaining.
