From the Back Cover

Most books about wine read like dictionaries and encyclopedias -- they are long, overly detailed and tedious. Through the Grapevine breaks this tradition and provides short descriptions of 19 different grape varieties, the wines made from them, and gives wine and food pairing suggestions. Beautiful, sensualistic illustrations stimulate the palate and add a fun and delightful twist to learning the basics of wine. Want to jot down a memorable wine? Under each description is a space where tasters are invited to write down their wine impressions. This book is perfect to give as a gift or to take to wine-tasting events, a trip to wine country, or a trip to the grocery store. Wherever there's wine, be sure to take Through the Grapevine!
