Have you ever longed for any easier way to deal with wine?

Learning about the major grape varieties and the hundreds of European regions that give their names to wine can be fun, but—let’s face it—not everyone wants to put that much energy into buying a bottle of wine.

WINE STYLE offers a new way of dealing with wine. It divides the white wines of the world into four taste categories and the red wines of the world into another four. What could be more important about a wine than how it tastes?

WINE STYLE helps you discover which taste category, or style, of wine suits you best, and enables you to ask for that style of wine when you buy wine in a shop or a restaurant. It also helps you become a better wine taster. It will help bring you more enjoyment from every bottle! This book takes the emphasis away from the traditional wine lingo of grapes and regions, and places it right where it belongs—on you and your taste. May it empower you to find a lifetime of pleasure in wine!
