Very informative, beautiful book!

"Wine Simple” has been my entry point into the world of wine, and honestly, I’m glad I started here. The book breaks down what can feel like a complicated topic and makes it feel approachable, even fun. There’s no snobbery or jargon, just clear explanations, colorful visuals, and a layout that makes it easy to flip to what you need. One thing I love is how the author uses real-life scenarios. For example, there are sections on pairing wine with takeout, or what to bring to a dinner party when you have no idea what’s being served. I found myself actually remembering grape names and regions, which never stuck before. There are charts and sidebars that help you spot the difference between, say, a Pinot Noir and a Cabernet, without making your eyes glaze over. The book is sturdy and looks great on a coffee table, but it’s also practical. I’ve highlighted pages and stuck tabs in my favorite sections. I’ve even brought it along to the wine shop a couple times. It’s about 250 pages, but the chapters are short—easy to read in small bursts. I’ve gifted this to a friend who wanted to get into wine but felt intimidated. He told me it made him feel more confident ordering at restaurants or picking a bottle for a night in. That’s probably the best thing about this book: it makes wine feel accessible, not exclusive. If there’s a drawback, it’s that some of the food pairing suggestions lean toward the adventurous side. If you mostly eat simple meals, you might skip a few pages. But overall, it’s a book I keep coming back to whenever I want to brush up or try something new. If you want to start learning about wine without feeling overwhelmed, this is the book I’d hand you first. It’s taught me a lot, and made wine a lot more fun in the process.

I bought this as a Xmas gift for my husband. He thinks it is really good
