It's well-written and highly informative without dumbing down the subject matter. I look forward to recommending Ken's book to my staff or anyone interested in learning more about wine. It's the key to having a better understanding of wine and, most importantly, enjoying it."<strong>--Alpana Singh, master sommelier and restaurateur, host of Emmy Award-winning WTTW show, <em>Check, Please!</em></strong></p> <p>"What I most enjoyed about <em>Wine: A Beginners Guide</em> is how it <strong>combines theory, history, and culture in such a smart and harmonious way</strong>. Ken borrows from his professional and personal experience, zest for life, and love of teaching to show how, when combined, seemingly complex and arcane wine knowledge comes together with clarity and joy."<strong>--Grant Achatz, James Beard Award Winner for Outstanding Chef (2008) and Best New Restaurant (Next, 2012)</strong></p><br>
