This was a nice quick intro to wine for those wanting to enjoy wine while being knowledgeable about it without necessarily committing to becoming a full sommelier. It is delivered in a funny and matter-of-fact way by the author who is able to briskly take you through the large variety of things involved in winemaking and drinking. I was a bit sad that it didn't include much about Portuguese vino verde/tinto but I suppose it would be difficult to hit them all in such a small book.
