 Cellaring and much more.... October 7, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The title of this book is a little misleading, the book does cover selecting, building, and managing wine. However, this information only acocunts for about 1/4 of the book. The rest of the book talks about wine in general. The cellaring chapters were very detailed and answered all of my questions. The other 3/4 of the book was interesting and covered your basic intro to wine information. If you want to know more about wine, or are looking for a complete guide on different ways to cellar wine, then this book is for you.

Jeff Cox has written a wonderful guide for cellaring wine which is nearly complete in all its details. More importantly, he has managed to write it in a way that is highly readable.
 More [and less] than the title implies October 27, 2005

This is a beautiful and well written book, unfortunately the title is a bit misleading. It not only discusses selecting, building and managing your wine collection, but also spends a great deal of time [most of the book actually] on such things as the aroma wheel, picking your wines, etc. If you're already an enthusiast looking for a 'how to' book, you might want to look elsewhere.

OK, it's refreshing to take the seriousness out of wine and show everybody that it's for their occasion. Putting all seriousness aside, though, wine is serious. If your willing to go out and buy and then read a book about it, then it's serious. Now this doesn't mean you should be afraid, it simply means wine is something worth experiencing and your more than eager. go for it, read this book, and more importantly drink the wine. If you, like me, are already past GO then don't slow down for this book. Read this book without expectations of rising to connoisership and read it before your glass gets half full.
