Andrea Robinson's 2008 Wine Buying Guide for Everyone: An American Master Sommelier's Simple Guide to Great Wine and Food Matches

Dispensing with the obscure and hard-to-find wines covered by so many critics and wine guides, Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson showcases the most popular and available wines in stores and restaurants. Her tasting notes and reviews include popular ratings from consumers and experts who contribute reviews on her website, www.andreawine.com. In addition to ratings of more than 800 wines, the book is packed with quick-reference tools including Best-Of lists of the top-scoring wines in each grape and style, Cuisine Complements wine and food pairing suggestions, an invaluable restaurant wine list decoder, and a mini-course to get readers quickly up to speed on wine basics. It’s all in a fun-to-read, handy pocket-purse-glovebox-sized format.
