Wine Savvy In 108 Steps

Wine exert Mark Oldman is the author of Oldman's Guide to Outsmarting Wine: 108 Ingenious Shortcuts to Navigate the World of Wine with Confidence and Style. The shortcuts are the book's chapters. Almost all are two or three pages long and get right to the point, with tables that feature the foods that go best with a particular wine, a guide to favored producers, and even pronunciation help. One theme that runs through the book is that the most popular wines are often the most overpriced, both in wineshops and in restaurants, and that savvy sippers can save by seeking the lesser-known alternatives.
