This book demystifies wine and the wine making process by approaching this often intimidating subject from a varietal--or type of grape--approach rather than a regional--such as French wine vs.. German wine--approach. Most people learn about wines by tasting different varietals such as Chardonnay, not by learning all the regions and different wines of France. Readers learn about the different types of grapes and the wines made from these grapes. From this foundation, professionals discover what to look for in a wine, how to taste wine, howto pair wine and foods, and much more. Along with table wines, this handbook covers sparkling wines, fortified wines, beer, and spirits. This title also focuses on the business of a sommelier, both the service and managerial approach. Issues such as, exploring and developing wine lists, determining faulty wines, ordering, receiving, and storing wines, product research, and cellar management
