The great wine swindle - Malcolm Gluck

What is it that makes wine both Britains most loved drink ahead of beer and the source of a feeling of unease when standing in front of rows of bottles at a supermarket or Oddbins' In this engaging book, Malcolm Gluck rips apart the pretensions of the wine industry in order to make the choice as easy as that for beer. Based on 25 years of experience he reveals the intimidation, down right deception, and other tricks used to con you into buying more expensive wine that does not taste good. At last wine has found its own Jeremy Clarkson! Expanded with a chapter on the European wine scam.
