About the Book

89 Rules divided over a eight chapters: The Basics, Inside the Bottle, Choosing It, How to Serve and Enjoy It, Storing It and Taking It Places, Wine with Food, Dining Out, and Drinking.

“Certainly the world doesn’t need another “drink this, not that” book. Instead, The New Wine Rules was born out of the idea that the most valuable thing I can share is a handy summary of the practical things I’ve learned about incorporating wine into everyday life: how to figure out what you like, how to pick out a bottle for this weekend’s barbecue, when to splurge and when to keep it low-key.”
