Very good Book August 25, 2006 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very good book. I use it as a text book for my beverage class and it's fantastic, easy reading and informative.
Sales and Service for the Wine Professional August 7, 2006 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great book that I will use often! A wealth of information contained in one book (I actually plan a purchasing more; one for each of my managers). It would be helpful to include a brief summary at the end of each chapter though.
How it ranks... August 8, 2005 This is a "must have" for those studying for the Court of Master Sommeliers. No other book is as precisely written for intricate studies as a professional in the wine industry.

This is the absolute best book with which to study for the tests given by the Guild of Master Sommeliers.
Hospitality Operators & Educators; Sommeliers READ THIS January 9, 2000 43 out of 45 found this review helpful
Master Sommelier and Hospitality Professor Brian Julyan's long-awaited revision of SALES AND SERVICE FOR THE WINE PROFESSIONAL is finally available. Wine is covered in a succint, no-nonsense, easy-to-grasp, and immediately-useable manner. The same holds true for sections on beers, spirits, mineral waters, specialty coffees, traditional European cigar, cigarette, and cocktail service, and even telephone manner. Mr. Julyan's British background does become obvious with the section on how to greet royalty. While certainly amusing, this may not come in as handy for Americans. However, the rest of this guide book is so helpful to everyday operations that copies are sure to become dog-eared, well-worn, and kept at arms' reach by servers and supervisors alike instead of gathering dust on an executive's shelf. Educators and Sommeliers: this book is one-stop-shopping for all of those interested in the sales and service of wine, and is on the required reading list for the Master Sommelier program (now we can stop circulating that eight-year-old photocopied version from Hawaii!)
