This book was amazing. Read it in two sittings. It’s the kind of book I didn’t want to put down bc I wanted to learn more about Marie’s style of learning labels and what was to come on the next pages. I feel like it will help me with blinds even though the book was about visual cues…odd how that works. But really REALLY great work and so relatable.

Knocked this book out in two sittings. As someone with no wine knowledge at all, it is approachable, relatable, and lacking a superiority complex. It has awesome visual references and analogies to help complex concepts sink in for wine newbies, like myself. I would recommend for anyone who is trying to wet their whistle in the world of wine and wants a giggle out loud while they do it.
