How often have you been tasting a glass of wine, and you think to yourself "I know what that aroma is..." but you just can't put a name to it, even though it's on the tip of your tongue.....literally. Then you start to think about all those wine books that you have sitting back at home, and how you don't have any with you when you really need them the most. What you do need is something that is light, portable, discreet, and compact enough to fit into your pocket, purse, or wallet. Something that provides you with essential bite sized chunks of information about wine tasting and acts as a quick reference guide, or a useful prompt. The Essential Wine Tasting Guide, developed as a result of experiences such as this, is the culmination of ten years of wine tasting notes and extensive research of major grape varieties and wine styles within the classic wine growing regions of the world. Slip it out, open it up, and it unfolds to reveal a plethora of compact wine tasting information to help guide you in the analytical tasting of wine. Features include •Sparkling/Champagne, white, red, dessert/ice and fortified wines including Brandy, Port, Sherry, Muscat & Tokay •Major and emerging international wine grape varieties & wine styles •Over 1,000 tactile and varietal wine aroma descriptors •Wine descriptor groups •Wine colour comparison guide •Faults in wine •Scoring wine •Temperature serving guide •Neutral white background for wine colour assessment All this, and it's only the size of a credit card! You will quickly realise, along with many international wine professionals, that the Essential Wine Tasting Guide© is an extremely useful wine tool.
