about the book
Discover a year of fabulous wine advice and must-try recommendations from Karen MacNeil, the passionate and knowledgeable author of the bestselling The Wine Bible. Try Salentein's spicy, rugged syrah, bursting with black fig and dark cherry character. Fritz Haag's lively, minerally Riesling. And, for stashing in the cellar for a few years, Miner's Cabernet Sauvignon. Plus tips for pairing wine with shellfish, the intense, brooding wines of Spain's Priorato region, what to drink lightly chilled and what to drink cold, variety versus varietal, getting to know Tocai Fruilano, and trivia: Do you know how many grapes go into one 750 ml bottle of wine?
