The ultimate visual course for wine lovers seeking no-nonsense practical information that brings the subject to life

The essential, jargon-free guide for anyone who wants to get more out of their wine glass.

Which end of a bottle of chianti is the "nose"? How are you meant to smell notes of honeysuckle in that glass of sauvignon blanc? Does expensive really mean better quality?

Wine: A Tasting Course is a practical, no-nonsense guide that will make you think about what you drink. Discover which wines you like and why, read about the journey from grape to glass, and get to grips with those all-important food and wine pairings. Pore over vibrant infographics, and pair with a glass of red or white as you try out a selection of taste tests.

A corker of a guide that combines essential know-how with plenty of fun facts, Wine: A Tasting Course contains everything you need to talk, taste, and enjoy your favourite vintage.
