Publisher's Synopsis
It was while preparing study materials for my first formal wine class that I realized the industry makes learning about wine much more difficult than it should be. Most people do not care how it is made or what type of soil makes for the best Merlot. They care about how it tastes, what they like, how to buy it and what to choose from a wine menu. While in class, I found myself watching the clock through lecture waiting for the time when we put the books away and started tasting. Like you, I just wanted to get down to the business of discovering my own tastes, likes and dislikes. Named after the Roman god of wine, The Bacchus Syllabus was created to make learning about wine easy, interesting and fun.
