Great Stuff for the Wine Lover Unorganized or Not

As most of my friends and family know, I love wine. I most partial to the Cabs, BUT if the mood and food call for it I like a Shiraz too. However, they also know I'm too busy to keep anything in any kind of order. This book is great. Offering insight to collectors and how to keep inventory. I am now proud of collection and more importantly I know what's in it. The Best Cellar is smart, funny, and great for any wine lover from a 'perfectionist' to a 'wannabe'.

A Must Read

Now, I get it. My wines were a mess, but The Best Cellar is a huge help in getting my cellar organized. It is also enjoyable to read.

A modern day classic

A must read! I loved this book! Why wouldn't I? I wrote it.
