Heard it Through the Grapevine: A few things you should know about wine - Tapa dura

The book answers the 100 most commonly asked questions about wine. Some of the questions, such as "do screwcaps mean cheap wine?", have short and simple answers; others, such as "how do I taste wine?", have longer answers illustrated with photographs and illustrations. Like "Thirsty Work", the book features photographs from several countries and has an innovative design to reflect Matt's refreshingly relaxed approach to wine.
