You might enjoy reading a few of the articles and reference material I have created over the years. I have just just released an e-book which compiles the Q&A from Local Wine Events entitled Answers to Wine Questions from Real People. Wine Tasting Vocabulary is a succinct lexicon of wine tasting terms. The Onion of Taste explores the complex factors which govern how each of us experiences the taste of wine and food. Dealing with the Heat is inspired by my love of spicy foods and provides practical wine pairing advice for chile addicts. Old Rules, New Pleasures challenges conventional thinking about wine and cheese and proposes an updated, flexible approach. And the two companion guides, Wine and Style and Wine and Food are based on a classification of wine by style attributes, and the foods that match each style grouping. Last, the page on Terroir has numerous quotations from my published articles devoted to this popular and mystifying topic (and links to sites to read the complete versions).
