Our AirBnB host's son wrote this book. It is a hilarious primer on wine types, regions, and vocabulary. I'm no oenophile, but now I may be (slightly) better equipped when it comes time for fancy dinner parties again... so, like, 2022.

Not much else to do these days other than drink wine at home, so I figured I should actually learn a thing or two about it. This is a short, fun, and accessible book for wine beginners. I even found what should be my perfect wine-Rioja. According to this book, "If you like it, here's why: You are aroused by the smell of an old bookstore. You're a savvy buyer who found an inexpensive bottle of old wine." Sounds right up my alley! Now I just have to go buy a bottle of Rioja to see if it meets expectations.

Fun and common sense, if you like wine. Consider this Wine 101, in a fun way.
