Don't Leave Home Without It
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Now here's a wine guide for real people. Let's rephrase "wine guide" If it's a pocket guide like Oz Clarke, Hugh Johnson, or this one by Andrea Immer...we should call them "wine store guides". I find this fascinating: My wife and I are never in a wine store without a pocket guide and we rarely get a clunker. I think there's a correlation here. BUT, we never...and I don't mean "rarely" but actually "never" see anyone else shopping the aisles with a guide. It is sooooooooo helpful. More to the point: Andrea expects you to use the guide at the super market, Trader Joes, CostPlus, and your average wine store. She's not biased toward the high-end of the market (which I think other pocket guides are), so you can find tons of values. Don't leave home without it. No, not your Amex card. Andrea Immer's wine store guide.
Best guide for everyday wine!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I bought this book to guide in purchasing wine for everyday that is between 5 and 20 dollars. I am so happy I did. The guide has a rating system to tailor your buying decisions based on what matters most to you. For everyday wine, I like wine that is around $10 and has a high "price to taste value" and keeps well in the fridge in case I take a few days to finish the bottle. This book successfully helped me buy well over 10 wines available in my local store. All of said wines matched the ratings very well. I highly suggest this book for anyone looking for everyday pleasant wine drinking experiences.
Great book to keep in your car!

If you are like me, you want a medium price wine and you want to purchase with confidence. This book should get you there. It's arranged so you can look up wines in several different ways: type of grape, alphabetial, etc. It also features wines that are easy to find at your local wine shop -- no running all over town! And, it has a "kitchen countertop rating", so that you can see whether a bottle will last a day or two in the fridge (white) or on the countertop (red) after opening. Great work, Andrea! I also enjoy your show.
