The New Wine Lover's Companion

The New Wine Lover's Companion

The first edition of this popular wine reference was hailed by Jurgen Gothe of the Vancouver Sun as â€œthe best new wine book in more than a decade.â€ The New Wine Loverâ€™s Companion has been completely rewritten and updated to make it even better. No wine snobbery here. This bookâ€™s style is relaxed and conversational, serving up information without intimidating its reader. Arranged alphabetically, nearly 4,000 entries include innumerable details on grape varieties; wine styles; wine-growing regions; wine label terms; winemaking techniques; how to buy, store, and serve wine; how to have a wine tasting; wine-testing terms; sizes and styles of glassware, wine bottles, and wine openers; ordering wine in a restaurant; opening and serving wine at home; temperatures for serving wine; and much more. This book is the only A-to-Z wine reference that offers phonetic pronunciations. It boasts a totally revised and expanded appendix enhanced with charts, line art, and sample labels. Praise for the previous edition came from many food and dining authorities: â€œâ€¦an invaluable, user-friendly reference. I learned something from the very first page I turned to, and keep learning as I keep turning.â€ â€•William Rice, Food and Wine Columnist, Chicago Tribune . . . â€œA great reference! . . . excellent and accurate source for both wine professionals and those involved with wine purely for the love of it.â€ â€•Jacques Pepin, cookbook author and TV chef
