Rating:
Summary: very informative wine book
Review: I bought this book because I knew 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.

Summary: An enlightening wine book.
Review: 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.

Summary: no embarassing moments
Review: Recently, I was entertaining out of town guests who thought that they were very knowledgable about wine. Fortuantly. I had recently purchased this book. Because the book slips easily into your pocket I was able to excuse myself and retreat to the men's room where I quickly scanned the table of contents for the appropriate chapter, which provided me with the information to sound like a real wine expert by the time I got back to the table. What a lifesaver!!!

Review: This wine book has assisted me in selecting the correct wine to accompany my cuisine. Consequently I do not have to rely upon a waiter to select the appropriate wine. Most importantly I am now able to impress my fiance who is a gourmet chef as well as a wine expert.
