Description

Every time you open a bottle of wine, you embark on a unique journey through a wonderful world of sensations. Yet for all its pleasurable qualities, wine can be bewildering in its mystery and complexity.

  • Which countries or regions are known for making the best types of wine, and why?
  • Why do some wines pair well with certain foods and occasions and not others?
  • What does the taste of a particular wine reveal about where, and how, it was grown?
  • What's the correct temperature at which to store red wine? How about to serve it?

Intriguing questions like these—and their sometimes surprising answers—are at the heart of any enjoyable experience with wine, when you're hosting a party, touring a vineyard, shopping for a gift, or simply having a glass with your dinner. Unlocking the secrets of wine—its varieties, its language, the ways it's made, the techniques of tasting and shopping for it—is the key to heightening your appreciation of this intense and rewarding experience.

Whether you're a novice looking to master the basics, an enthusiast who tours vineyards, or something in between, there's no better way to learn about wine than from a wine expert— someone who has an authoritative knowledge of wine in all its glorious breadth and depth. Now, The Everyday Guide to Wine brings this rare opportunity right into your home with 24 engaging lectures delivered by acclaimed Master of Wine Jennifer Simonetti-Bryan—one of only 26 Americans to hold this coveted title. In her interactive and accessible course she gives you all the knowledge and tips you need to build your understanding of—and improve your ability to try, buy, talk about, and, most of all, enjoy—the world of wine.
