Join us this week to meet author Wes marshall and learn about his new book “What’s A Wine Lover To Do – 334 Essential Oenophile Pointers and Tips”
Most people who enjoy wine would like to know more about it, to feel confident in what they like and why, to know the “lingo.” Wine lover and writer Wes Marshall helps readers explore the world of wine, offering plainspoken explanations to wine questions that most people have but are hesitant to ask—no question is too simple, no answer too advanced.
Like earlier titles in the series, such as the best-selling What’s a Cook to Do?, this book offers empowering information in question-and-answer format with pronunciation guides, charts, maps, and step-by-steps—plus the best-bang-for-your-buck wine recommendations from well-known experts. Is Barolo a grape or a place? What do wine scores mean? What about sniffing the cork and which glasses to use? In this newest book in the What’s a … to Do? series, Wes Marshall presents his years of wine experience and insider tips in everyday language that makes wine approachable and knowable.’
In the second half I’ll be telling you about one of my “Old Wine Friends” from Chile, Concha y Toro and Marques de Casa Concha. One of the first and certainly one of the biggest South American wine producers, CYT continues to bring some of the finest wines to American wine lovers. When you compare price, availability and wine scores…you can’t go wrong with CYT and the Marques de Casa Concha tier of wines!
