How often have you been at a winery tasting room nosing a glass of wine, and you think 'I know what that aroma is' but you just can't put a name to it, even though it's on the tip of your tongue... literally. Then you start to think about all those wine books that you have sitting back at home, and how you don't have these with you when you need them the most.
What you need is something that is light, portable, discreet, and compact enough to fit into your pocket, purse, or wallet. Something that provides you with essential bite sized chunks of information about wine tasting and acts as a quick reference guide, or a useful prompt.
The Essential Wine Tasting Guide®, developed as a result of experiences such as this, is the culmination of ten years of wine tasting notes and extensive research of major grape varieties and wine styles within the classic wine growing regions of the world.
Slip it out, open it up, and it unfolds to reveal 34 mini-pages of compact wine tasting information to help guide you in the analytical tasting of wine.
Features include:
• Sparkling, white, red, dessert, and fortified wines including Brandy, Madeira,
Tokaji, and Sherry
• Major and emerging international wine grape varieties & wine styles
• Over 1 000 tactile and varietal wine aroma descriptors
• Wine descriptor groups
• Wine colour comparison guide
• Faults in wine
• Scoring wine
• Temperature serving guide
• Neutral white background for wine colour assessment
All this, and it's only the size of a credit card! You will quickly realise, along with many international wine professionals, that the Essential Wine Tasting Guide® is an extremely useful wine tool, that is... well, essential!

While wine sales have skyrocketed in this country, numerous wine bars, tastings, and boutique cellars have opened everywhere, and an increasing curiosity about wine is being uncorked amid all walks of life; there are few informative guides to wine enjoyment, which embrace what the grapes are most fully to be about - (FUN)! This entertaining video presentation, which makes understanding wine etiquette fun, and which guides viewers through many a glass and grasp, on how to enjoy wine and pair it with life and great food, will delight and enchant those who seek wine knowledge and tips, albeit in a relatable and refreshingly humorous manner. Dixon's video separates itself from affected sommelier and wine rep promotional videos, in that she reconnects each of us to the "raising a glass of wine in celebration of life" concept, and does so in a contagiously enthusiastic way - lifting spirits, interest, and one's ability to understand and appreciate wine. Sass From My Glass walks people through the basic steps necessary to mingle in any wine circle; and Ms. Dixon recommends that you enjoy watching her video, while drinking something delicious and red!
