Fed up with mediocre wine but not sure how to go about spotting the diamond bottles from the dross? Fear not! With Drink Me! as your guide you will soon be extracting the maximum pleasure from every mouthful
In this exciting new book, vintner Matt Walls points you towards the right bottle for every occasion, revealing the main different types of wine, the wine styles within each type and the brands or producers that are the most reliable. Buying the best bottles isn't the only thing you need to know; getting the most out of the wine once you've bought it is just as important.
Drink Me! uncovers the simple techniques that will radically change the way a wine tastes once it's in your mouth, as well as ways of thinking about and talking about what you're tasting that will help you appreciate your wine - from the most basic glugger to the most venerable vintage.
If you'd like to know which wines will impress a prospective father-in-law at lunch; how to tell what a wine tastes like by the name of the grape variety; what the waiter actually wants to know when he asks you whether you want the wine decanted; and what different sherries actually taste like, and why they will make you a happier person, then read on and drink up!
