Guys Who 'Uncork" Will Like It, Too!

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago

I have a surprise for you guys who think The Saucy Sisters' Guide to Wine is just for women. It's a great read for guys, too. I not only found it hilarious, but actually learned a good deal about wine and the opposite sex. In a recent movie, Mel Gibson had the ability to hear what women were thinking. Now us guys have the opportunity to read what women are thinking... and how wine plays into everything from popularity and love to sex and health. On page 34, I discovered that, because I enjoy Cabernet Sauvignon, I'm a bit abrasive and immature... but that my depth of character reveals me to be an asset in business and financial concerns... a man who is good for the long haul. Because I also like merlot, I'm supposed to be passionate with music and food. Maybe that's why I write and sing love songs. All jokes aside, this is the perfect gift to give your girlfriend, wife, friend, sister and mother... or anyone else you'd like to see "uncorked." Congratulations wine divas on one of the best books ever written in this genre.

This book is so entertaining that you don't realize how much you are learning. I wish all my schoolbooks could have been written with so much humor and pizazz,I would have learned a lot moreand had a lot more fun doing it. Every paragraph makes you laugh, learn and easily comprehend a very complicated subject matter.The writing is superb, the content complete, they thought of everything, even answers to questions most people wouldn't even think of asking. This book has all the right elements - plot, drama, humor, history, and sex, assembled in a way that makes it easy to digest and enjoyable to read. Keep it handy for reference, and to liven up a party. I plan to keep several on hand to give as gifts to my friends who enjoy books and wine as much as I do. As with all good books I hated to finish it - knowing how really hard it is to find a REALLY good read. It makes me hungry for more - what's next, Sisters?

Saucy Sisters Guide to Wine is a must read!

I loved this book!! The humorous style in this book is entertaining but does not detract from the valuable information in it. My husband liked it also (so it is a book for men as well). The Saucy Sisters take the mystique out of wine selections and etiquette, without removing the romance associated with enjoying a good (not necessarily expensive) bottle of wine with that special person! Buy this book and be able to converse intelligently with that wine snob that you dread seeing at parties!

This book really ROCKS!!

What a treat! I am giving a copy of this wonderful book to all my girlfriends for Christmas this year. It is well researched, well written and so damn funny!!!! At last, I can impress everyone I know with my knowledge of wines.
