Customer Reviews

The best wine guide I've ever read

The Buzz On Wine is a masterpiece. Finally there is a wine guide that goes beyond the typical, dry language used by wine industry experts. Learning about wine should be fun, not painful. There's no dry, boring technical jargon here, just pure buzz on everything from reislings to port. Sherman takes you all over the world and covers more ground than other books of its type. His writing style is hip and clever. Even The Wine Spectator applauds Sherman's approach in this months Book Review section. Bravo!

WINE BUZZ

This book is the handiest wine guide to wines of today as the old concepts have fallen by the wayside, i.e. French and Californian is the only way to go. But even in this period of great wealth real wine lovers are willing to try wines of Chile and Australia. I reccommend you keep a copy in your car and smuggle it in restaurants to check on what's what.
