I love this book. I've been following Winefolly.com for a while now and it is amazing. I even got my staff into it. When I heard the book was coming out I pre-ordered it immediately. I was not disappointed! I manage a high end Italian counter-service restaurant in Boston and out list is strictly Italian. Not only is this a great reference point for new people who are not so familiar with Italian varietals but it is really helping our servers who have been working exclusively with Italian wine for years understand how that relates to other wines. No longer are my servers coming to me saying, "William, I have a table that says they only drink white Burgundy. What on our list is like that?" Now they go to the book! I might have to buy an additional copy to keep at the restaurant and maybe a 3rd so I can enjoy it at home! Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this beautiful, well written and easily digestible book. Every restaurant in America should buy it for their staff.
Red or white? Cabernet or merlot? Light or bold? What to pair with food? Drinking great wine isn’t hard, but finding great wine does require a deeper understanding of the fundamentals.
