I have visited numerous book stores in an attempt to find a wine book that is easy to read and would provide me with the knowledge that I felt I needed to sound like a wine expert. I found it in Cataldo Uncorked: All You Really Need to Know About Wine to be "Pretentious" as well as "Obnoxious" and More.
I am now equally comfortable when ordering a bottle of wine in a restaurant or purchasing a bottle in a wine store. Also I can now describe the wine in terms that get the attention of people who are wine-savvy.

I bought this book because I new virtually nothing about choosing wine. I loved it because I found everything I needed to know quickly and easily - from how to order wine in a restaurant to speaking confidently about wine in conversations or at wine tastings. It includes a glossary and samples of wine descriptions, as well as suggestions on which wines to serve with which food. This is an excellent choice for anyone looking to increase their knowledge of wine.
