5.0 out of 5 stars Makes life easier., 5 Nov 2000
By A Customer
If you do not have the time or patience to get involved in all the ponceyness that is associated with wine but do appreciate a good value bottle then buy this book. I have bought the previous three years volumes and every recommendation I have used has been spot on. Through experience I have realised that supermarket wines can be unreliable,... but I have to say M. Gluck hasnt let me down yet... The only mild criticsm would be a well-meaning bias towards organic wines, which is fair-enough.

4.0 out of 5 stars In depth approach and thoughts on wine tasting., 13 Dec 1999
By jonnomc@hotmail.com (Oxford, England) - See all my reviews
A book on wine for the more curious amongst us about the different aspects of wine tasting. Malcolm Gluck is quite outspoken about his beliefs and not afraid to share them with the reader. He makes the case on the rights and wrongs about corks and the alternatives. His views on wine and how it should be available to everyone and not just elitists is refreshing and encouraging for the curious amongst us who would like to delve into trying wine more often. I feel this book is more for for the person who has some knowledge rather than none. However, with a little pratice I'm sure the book would be very useful to the beginner. A very interesting read and different to many wine books currently on the market.
