The Everyday Guide to Wine
Brand: Brand: The Teaching Company
Wine has been a part of human civilization for thousands of years, since at least the time of the ancient Egyptians. It's been used as a communal beverage, a sign of power and prestige, and even as a religious symbol. Studies show that wine also can have a positive effect on your well-being; when enjoyed in moderation, wine may offer benefits for cardiovascular health, longevity, stress reduction, and more. Further, every time you open a bottle of wine, you embark on a journey through a wonderful world of sensations. For all its pleasurable qualities, though, wine can be bewildering in its mystery and complexity. Unlocking the secrets of wine - its varieties, the ways it's made, the techniques of tasting and shopping for it - is the key to heightening your appreciation of this intense and rewarding experience. Whether you're a novice looking to master the basics, an enthusiast who tours vineyards, or somewhere in between, there's no better way to learn about wine than from a wine expert - someone who has an authoritative knowledge of wine in all its glorious breadth and depth. Now, The Everyday Guide to Wine brings this rare opportunity right into your home with 24 engaging lectures delivered by acclaimed Master of Wine Jennifer Simonetti-Bryan, one of only 26 Americans to hold this coveted title. In her interactive and accessible course she gives you all the knowledge and tips you need to build your understanding and improve your ability to try, buy, talk about, and - most of all - enjoy the world of wine.<p>LIFETIME MANUFACTURER WARRANTY.
