Rosen's writing is creative and appealing without seeming forced, which is rare. This book will entertain even those who don't feel compelled to read everything ever written about the world of wine. Give this book to someone who's never read a wine book and they'll laugh their way through it before realizing how much they've learned.
Rosen is one of the food and wine writers I turn to when I want a little bit o' fun inserted into my day. She reminds me of what attracted me to the wine business in the first place. I can't read Rosen without smiling.

Laughing and Learning January 9, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really enjoyed Jennifer's book. She has a great way with the American language. The book holds your attention while teaching aspects of wine that are not normally covered by the "Wine Snobs". I actually preferred her second book, but this was worth my time. I now use both books as hostess gifts when visiting my wine drinking friends. She's also a Hottie!
Pick it out, like a bit of cork January 5, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pick this book up if you want to have a laugh about the world's oldest cupa. Jennifer Rosen examines people's relationships with wine and the many facets of wine's own personality. You'll laugh, you'll learn, you'll toast this natural, relaxed approach to such an enamored and intimidating subject. So pour some good bag-in-box cabernet into your favorite Happy Birthday mug, kick back and enjoy.
