Synopsis
Wine should be fun. It civilizes, relaxes, tastes good, and is one of the world's great pleasures. That's Michael Bonadies's philosophy, and his goal is to "cut through the gobbledygook and make wine fun and accessible" for everyone.
Presented in workbook format, the information in Sip by Sip is clear, down-to-earth, irreverent in tone, served to the reader in digestible doses, and designed to take the so-called wine snob down a peg. The book is full of important and useful information on every subject from how various wines are produced to how they taste, how they are served, and how they differ from one another. Obscure terms are clarified, wine jargon is demystified, seemingly abstruse subjects are clarified--all while the reader is being entertained and developing a deeper enjoyment of wine itself.

From the Publisher
Advance Praise for Sip by Sip:
"After reading this book, I turned the temperature down on my reds and up on my whites, and everything tastes better. Michael Bonadies is knowledgeable and practical about wine, except that he gets you to enjoy wine and smile at the same time, which is hard to do without spilling it all over your shirt."
--Alan Alda
"Finally, a wine book that doesn't make you feel bad about how little you know. Sip by Sip is funny, inviting, and, best of all, confidence-building."
--Alan Richman, GQ
"If you're rich and famous, you'll buy one copy for the butler and one for yourself."
--Robin Leach, author of The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous Cookbook
"Michael Bonadies has a witty, unpretentious, and, above all, fun approach to teaching about wine. His book is thorough and user-friendly. With wine lovers like Michael, who needs experts?"
--Daniel Johnnes, Montrachet restaurant
