Description
Tales from the Wine Floor: 100 Questions Asked of a Sommelier by James Quaile is a one-of-a-kind book, aimed at true beginners who appreciate wine but lack basic knowledge about it. This book offers an easy-to-digest crash course on wine and a quick reference written by a sommelier. The author explains the nuances of wine to the ordinary man or woman in a simple and entertaining manner.
This accessible English guide is based on real questions (often absurd or hilarious) posed by ordinary wine lovers and the answers provided by the author in his role as "The Wine Guy". Among the questions and answers featured in this book are:
- What are sulfites?
- Why does the same wine sometimes taste different?
- How to order wine at a restaurant?
- How to organize a wine tasting at home?
- And, why is champagne served in a strangely shaped glass?
Illustrated with amusing drawings by New Yorker cartoonist John O'Brien, novice wine enthusiasts will find Tales from the Wine Floor both informative and entertaining.
