Wine Confident: There is No Wrong Way to Enjoy Wine

The same elements that make wine thrilling – its breadth of regions, varieties and vintages, its ever-changing nature, rituals and the many languages of its labels – can also make it intimidating. And this breaks Kelli White’s heart. In Wine Confident, she takes the anxiety out of wine description by teaching us how to reach the right metaphors; debunks the myths around restaurant choices; tells the truth about sommeliers (she’s been there, she is one!), and teaches us how to order wine like a pro. For Kelli, wine really matters – not just as a fine-dining accompaniment or to relax your shoulders at the end of a long day, but as a clue to the character of our natural world. Here, upper-class pretensions are swept aside and the core message of this book –communicated with Kelli’s uniquely quirky wit and warm humour – is clear.

There is no wrong way to enjoy wine.
