| Publisher Description: For a lot of people, buying wine is like a run at the casino. You pick up a bottle and you roll the dice taking your chances. Will this one be a winner? Will it be something I "kind of" like? Will it just plain suck for me? Ordering wine at a restaurant is another adventure. Reading the wine list is like reading Chinese...or maybe French, Spanish, Italian? Do I have a prayer's chance of ordering something I know I'll like and enjoy?Jorge L zaro D az faced that issue head on when he returned from a trip to Italy and realized how difficult it was to find a bottle of wine he liked. It was so easy over there, but at home it was like looking for treasure with no map.Jorge's aim is to get you past that. He's not going to get all snobby on you with stuff that goes right over your head. He's going to show casual wine drinkers, and by this I mean regular people, how to get a good bottle of wine EVERY TIME. He will tell you himself, "Our family now drinks a lot of wine. It's standard at dinner and a part of social gatherings with family and friends. What I share with you in this book is what I've learned, much of it with my wine drinking buddy and daughter Sof a, and my hope is that by sharing what we know you can sidestep the potholes. We stepped in 'em, got our feet wet and had to clean up from the stumble. I want to keep you from that."What you learn here is basic. You don't need to know everything. You do need to know something. The book's promise is that you'll be well on your way to NEVER having to say to yourself, "I bought another crummy bottle of wine that I just don't like." |
