Everything you need to know about buying, ordering, and serving
wine! Enlarged and updated with information about the myriad
changes enacted by the European Union over the last few years and
their effect on member nations, newly flourishing wine-growing
regions, enhanced coverage of vinicultural practices, and
additional wine making terms, The New Wine Lover's Companion
informs, advises, and enlightens readers with approximately 4,000
entries that describe wines produced all around the world. A
veritable bible for wine novices, bartenders, and seasoned
sommeliers, the A-to-Z entries describe grape varieties; wine
styles; wine growing regions; wine making techniques; wine-tasting
terms; sizes and styles of glassware, wine bottles and wine
openers; optimal temperatures for serving different wines; and much
more. The original edition of this book was hailed by Jurgen Gothe
of the Vancouver Sun as "the best new wine book in more than a
decade. . . " and this new edition is better than ever. One of the
many qualities that has made The New Wine Lover's Companion so
popular is its accessibility. No wine snobbery here. The author
serves up solid information about vintages, varieties, and which
wines pairs best with which food in a relaxed, conversational style
that doesn't intimidate readers. Additional advice and information
includes: Tips on buying wine Ordering wine in a restaurant

and enjoying the world's most civilized beverage-wine! Includes
extensive appendices, charts, a glossary, and a bibliography.
