Description
Wine is now one of the most popular drinks in the world. Many wine drinkers wish they knew more about it without having to understand every detail or go on a wine course. In The 24-Hour Wine Expert, Jancis Robinson shares her expertise with authority, wit, and approachability.
This 100-page guide, published by Penguin, covers a variety of essential topics for any wine lover. Jancis Robinson explains the fundamental differences between red and white wine, the shape of bottles and their labels, descriptions of taste, color, and smell, as well as food and wine pairing. She also addresses the price-quality correlation, helping readers make the most of this mysteriously delicious drink.
Called "the most respected wine critic and journalist in the world" by Decanter magazine, Jancis Robinson was the first person outside the wine trade to qualify as a Master of Wine in 1984. The Financial Times wine writer, she is the author/editor of dozens of wine books, including Wine Grapes (Allen Lane), The Oxford Companion to Wine (OUP), and The World Atlas of Wine (Mitchell Beazley). Her award-winning website, www.JancisRobinson.com, has subscribers in 100 countries.
