From Karen MacNeil, "America's missionary of the vine" (Time magazine), A YEAR OF GOOD WINE is like a lively, year-long wine course in a calendar. Adapted from the New York Times bestselling The Wine Bible, with 650,000 copies sold, it features recommendations for the best bottles from around the world, tasting notes, in-the-know wine facts, mouth-watering recipes, and more. Discover Loire-valley French whites, like Sauvignon Blanc, which has an herbal, lime-scented freshness. Try pairing a crisp gru ner veltliner with grilled fresh asparagus for a light summer dish. Plus tips on spectacular bottles within a budget, wine horoscopes that match each sign with the right wine, and an Ask Karen section--Q&As that address wine queries and curiosities.
