This is the way to learn about wine ...... through experiences, whether you are young or old, a traveller or a "stay at home" or a WSET student. This book is not a wine guide, nor is it a travel guide. It is a memoir of our wine experiences over half a century from student days to retirement and old age. Certainly this book involves and includes travel, mostly across the wine regions of France especially Burgundy, Loire, and Alsace which are our three favourite places to visit. But we have also “engaged” with wine in USA, Italy, Spain and Hungary too, often at Christmas when the festive spirit was most conducive to sharing and enjoying a glass or two. Several chapters however may read like a guide, though this is only because of our experience with terroir, culture, history, appellations, philosophy, winemakers, wine tasting, wine collecting, neuroscience and on being a wine judge. But rest assured, everything is practical and has added to our enjoyment of wine, we hope you will learn from our experiences and mistakes and really hope it will add to your enjoyment too.
