Jancis Robinson’s How to Taste – A Guide to Enjoying Wine is to my blog Got Knowledge what NYPD homicide detective, Kate Beckett, is to best-selling mystery writer, Richard Castle, in the American comedy-drama television series Castle. Let’s face it: we all need a muse to get us over the hump of inertia and to inspire us to greater deeds. Robinson has been mine for some time. Her Guide to Enjoying Wine has been my proverbial ‘maceration that launched a thousand sips’. Well, perhaps not quite a thousand, but currently, it’s 39 blog ‘sips’ and counting. If you’re looking to sharpen your blind tasting skills, or just wish to heighten the enjoyment of your next glass of wine, I heartily recommend either clicking on the book to obtain your personal copy, or paying your local library a visit.
