Publisher's Synopsis
The Fearless Critic Blind Wine Tasting Set includes everything you need to see through the pseudoscience and snobbery of wine experts and learn your own palate. This elegantly packaged box set, a perfect gift for any wine lover, includes four 155mm, 12cl ISO-standard glasses-the same ones used in blind tasting competitions by wine judges around the world-along with a set of 50 tasting forms, and a copy of a special edition of Robin Goldstein's provocative The Wine Trials , which turned the wine world upside down by proving that even wine experts couldn't distinguish cheap wines from expensive wines when the labels were concealed. Blind Taste will teach you how to taste wine, and why you should trust your own palate instead of following the opinions of wine experts, and the Blind Wine Tasting Set provides all the tools you need to put the book's premises to the test, challenge the opinions of experts, and investigate your own tastes in a rigorous, scientific way.
