If you love wine or know someone who does, you gotta have this book. It's great for wine tastings, relaxing beside a fire with friends or perusing while soaking in the hot tub.

I buy this book for all of my wine-loving friends. It's great to sit down with a glass of your favorite wine and browse through. There are lots of poems, sayings and toasts--all about wine! There's even an overview of the history of wine in different cultures throughout the ages. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Gift Idea...along with a bottle of wine!, August 5, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: In Praise of Wine: An Offering of Hearty Toasts, Quotations, Witticisms, Proverbs, and Poetry Throughout History (Paperback)

This is a neat book that brings known quotes, adages, etc. about wine...together with the obscure. Fun book to own...even better to give to a wine-loving friend. I will also admitt that I went to college with the author...and she has tasted wines from Boone's Farm...to great Mondavi's...she knows her wine!
