Synopsis
The James Beard Award-winning classic &“for beginners or professionals who want all the facts and stories in a concise, easy-to-follow format&” (Laura Maniec, owner, Corkbuzz Wine Studio). Now completely revised and updated, this new edition of the essential consumer guide to wine features all the most current information for today&’s wine landscape. The authors, longtime wine educators at The Culinary Institute of America, have added all the latest and most relevant information to their award-winning book, including new picks for the best regional producers, off-the-beaten-path finds, and bargain bottles. With a practical, anti-snob attitude, the emphasis is always on enjoying wine to the fullest in real-world scenarios and getting the best value for your dollar, whether splurging on a special-occasion bottle or deciding on your own &“house&” wine. All the basics are covered, including the major wine grapes, flavor profiles, and decoding labels, plus up-to-date information on established and up-and-coming regions, advice on pairing wine with everything from Korean short ribs to all-American burgers, opinions on wine gadgets (yea or nay?), and more. Cheers! &“Reading WineWise is like having a great conversation about my favorite topic—wine! Enjoy exploring the diverse wine regions and then finish with how to pair wines with food. The ideas and thoughts behind the wine and food pairing chapters just make plain sense, and, of course, you may need another glass of wine.&”—Bruce Cakebread, president, Cakebread Cellars &“Nothing pretentious here. WineWise is fun, friendly, and packed with information on wines of the world, particularly ones that won&’t break the bank.&”—Tara Q. Thomas, executive editor, Wine & Spirits
