Calendar de birou 2018 - A Year of Good Wine

A celebration of fine wine, food pairings, tasting notes, and more, compiled by Karen MacNeil, author of The Wine Bible. Savour aromatic reds like cabernet franc, prized for its minerally, dark-chocolate flavours, and California whites like chenin blanc, which makes for a refreshing Watermelon White Sangria with slices of nectarine and lime. Master the art of pairings--did you know that dry sparkling wines go well with the salty crunch of popcorn? Or that cherry-flavoured Cotes du Rhone goes best with warm stew? And expand oenophilic knowledge with quotes, tips on spectacular bottles within a budget, and wine horoscopes that match each sign with the right wine. Plus Ask Karen--Q&As that address wine queries and curiosities.
