INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER"Thrilling... [told] with gonzo élan... When the sommelier and blogger Madeline Puckette writes that this book is the Kitchen Confidential of the wine world, she's not wrong, though Bill Buford's Heat is probably a shade closer." -Jennifer Senior, The New York Times"Think: Eat, Pray, Love meets Somm." -theSkimm"As informative as it is, well, intoxicating." -FortuneProfessional journalist and amateur drinker Bianca Bosker didn't know much about wine-until she discovered an alternate universe where taste reigns supreme, a world of elite sommeliers who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of flavor.
Astounded by their fervor and seemingly superhuman sensory powers, she set out to uncover what drove their obsession, and whether she, too, could become a "cork dork."With boundless curiosity, humor, and a healthy dose of skepticism, Bosker takes the reader inside underground tasting groups, exclusive New York City restaurants, California mass-market wine factories, and even a neuroscientist's fMRI machine as she attempts to answer the most nagging question of all: what's the big deal about wine? What she learns will change the way you drink wine-and, perhaps, the way you live-forever.Named one of 10 New Nonfiction Food Books to Read this Spring and Summer żeby Bon AppetitNamed one of The 4 Books You Should Read This Spring by FortuneNamed one of 12 Nonfiction Books You Need to Read in March by Harper's BazaarNamed one of the 20 Best Nonfiction Books Coming in March 2017 aby BustleNamed one of The Best Drink Books of Spring and Summer 2017 aby PunchNamed one of the Best Books of Early 2017 by BrightlyNamed one of the Top Ten Narrative Food and Drink Books of 2017 aby BooklistNominated for a 2017 Tasty Award in Food Literature
