Wine Savvy is a toolbox of wine tasting, buying and serving skills that you can use whether you want to spend $5 or $50. In accessible language, with good humor, writer and wine educator Heidi Yorkshire demystifies wine in this book.
Wine Savvy was nominated for an IACP/Julia Child Cookbook Award. The book was translated into Japanese and published in Japan by YoYoSha.
