Bluffer's Guide To Wine: Instant Wit & Wisdom (Bluffer's Guides)

by HarryEyresJonathanGoodall (Author)

Synopsis

Never again confuse your vintage with your viticulture, your ullage with your oenology, your sabrage with your cepage. Bask in the admiration of your fellow drinkers, pronounce confidently on the provenance of whatever is in your glass (or your mouth), and hold your own against the most sneering of sommeliers. Written by experts and offering readers the opportunity to pass off appropriated knowledge as their own, the Bluffer's Guides provide hard fact masquerading as frivolous observation in one witty, easy read.

Author Bio
Jonathan Goodall has written about all facets of booze for, amongst others, The Daily Telegraph, The Times, The Spectator and Saga Magazine. He is now resting his liver in Bournemouth. Harry Eyres was introduced to serious wine appreciation at the age of eight. With wine running in his blood in both senses (his father was a wine merchant), he twice managed to carry off the coveted individual prize in the Oxford v Cambridge Tasting Match (the bibbers' Boat race). He has been wine columnist for The Spectator and Harpers & Queen When not seriously appreciating wine, he returns to Spain to anaesthetise his palate with Fundador brandy in the bars of old Barcelona.
