As wine's popularity continues to explode in the US, and sales sky-rocketing with it, there has come an avalanche of 'wine education' books preaching and promising to teach you everything you ever (or never) wanted to know about wine. But none of them actually make you go drink the stuff. It's kind of like reading a hundred books on how to ride a bike, without ever mounting up on the pedals.
Aha! This book aims to quench that real thirst of wine knowledge by actually getting you out there and drinking, albeit with the training wheels on for starters. Drink This Now! is a book for those actually wanting to start drinking the Bacchus beverage immediately while they learn some stuff along the way. I'll be honest: you don't need any damn book to drink and enjoy wine, but many find wine's complexities and details a little daunting which is why they are hesitant to confidently jump in with both feet. I want to help with that, get you drinking now, and get you walking the walk and talking the talk of wine which actually increases your enjoyment immensely.

Using actual wine lessons written for and tested out in my college classes Drink This Now! was written with the wine-curious beginner in mind. First-time imbibers, college students, and even seasoned drinkers who would like to know a little more detail about this fantastic fluid are the target audience. Let's get drinking!
