A hilarious send-up of winetasters' jargon, this collection of cartoons offers a satiric look at pretentious phrases used to describe wines by humorously assigning those characteristics to people.
This book is full of the funniest illustrations that will make anyone laugh and real wine appreciators fall out of their chairs!
Saw it in a B & B in McMinnville, Oregon & had to have it!

A great book that is a must for "winelovers" with illustrations that only a crazy Englishman could think about in the wicked world of winetasting!

Only Searle could create such irreverent fun

Is this the book that Searle illustrated some 10-15 years ago? I enjoyed sharing it with many winetasting friends. It contained such depictions as "this wine is passed its prime" or "This wine is very immature" I loaned to someone and never got it back. If this is the book, I want it!!!
fantastic, if book printed 10-15 yrs ago pls let me know

I owned this very fun book, some 10-15 yrs ago, if it is the book that illustrates common sayings about wine. Very clever, what a genius to depict sayings like, "this wine is passed its prime" or "this wine is immature" I need to know if this is the same book, Mr. Searle was commissioned by Clos du Bois Winery at that time. Is this the same book?
