A single printing of this deluxe gift-edition hardback will be available this autumn. Andrew Sharp, wine consultant extraordinaire, imparts three golden rules: 1. to encourage the reader to expand the use of his or her natural senses 2. to help develop the ability to judge consistently and accurately the quality of a wide array of wines, independent of the tastes of others 3. to foster appreciation of the differences in wine characteristics Neither simplifying nor complicating the subject, Sharp has produced a precise and, above all, enjoyable book.
Review: Taste can be a barrier to enjoying fine wine if wine lovers are given information based on the tastes of 'experts' rather than personal preference. Sharp imparts the basics of how experts determine and evaluate wine quality, with chapters covering both technical aspects of wine production and aging and the art of distinguishing the fine wine from the ordinary. -- Midwest Book Review
