I can't tell you how often I'm in a wine store and notice someone wandering the wine aisles, trying to make heads or tails out of an overwhelming number of wine selections. This book helps solve this problem. The education is imparted with confidence and grace. It definitely makes you feel equipped, not stupid. And Ed's choices are very solid.
