Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
A hilarious send-up of winetasters' jargon, this collection of cartoons offers a satiric look at pretentious phrases used to describe wines by humorously assigning those characteristics to people.

A great book that is a must for "winelovers" with illustrations that only a crazy Englishman could think about in the wicked world of winetasting!

a must read for anyone who enjoys wine and espically those who like to talk about it. Great gift for the wine snob you know.


5 out of 5 stars Only Searle could create such irreverent fun   November 2, 1998

Is this the book that Searle illustrated some 10-15 years ago? I enjoyed sharing it with many winetasting friends. It contained such depictions as "this wine is passed its prime" or "This wine is very immature" I loaned to someone and never got it back. If this is the book, I want it!!!

Is this the book that Clos Du Bois winery commissioned some 10-15 yrs ago? It had such cartoon depictions as "This wine is immature" and " This wine is passed its prime" I enjoyed it so much, while having wine tasting parties, then someone "borrowed" it.
