SO small SO cute

It doesnt have that much information, but the book is interesting, it worth the money

A great book for wine parties and events.

This is an excellent palm sized book that any wine lover - novice or expert - would enjoy having. It makes the `perfect' gift for wine tasting parties or as a stocking stuffer for the holidays. The book includes brief lessons on wine buying, wine storage, wine tasting and food paring, etc. Since they are `brief' lessons some wine experts might be hesitant to buy this book, but the thing I love most about this book was the wine related quotes that are inter-spread throughout the book. I think everyone would enjoy these quotes, and are worth the price of the book itself. Here are some of my favorite quotes from the book: `In Vino Veritas.' - Pliny `I feast on wine and bread, and feasts they are' - Michelangelo `Wine is light held together by moisture.' - Galileo Galilei

A Great Party Bag Item!

This is an absolute must-have if you're having a wine tasting party. These cute palm-size books make excellent thank-you gifts or party bag gifts for those attending your tasting. And, they can easily be carried about as you shop at your favorite store for a wine to go with the evening's meal.
