I know very little about wine and am looking to learn more. This book was a good place to start. The description of how wine is made and the "big" wine varieties were described. The section about pairings was great! I had always heard "red with red" but the section explained so much more about the hows and whys of pairing food and wine. The ideas for hosting a wine tasting were great. The one thing I wished it had (though I understand why it didn't) was a bit more explantion of tastes of the types of wines. It did clearly explain what the taste is of those red wines that feels like there is cotton coating my tongue, which will help me a great deal as I look to try new types of wines.Get more detail about The Complete Idiot's Guide to Wine Basics.
