Fred Sirieix demystifies the world of wine, cuts through the pompous old rules, and equips you with the knowledge you need to make your own confident, informed choices

How to select wine for its taste, not its packaging or its price.

Knowing the difference between all those bottles on the supermarket shelves will double the pleasure you get from a glass of wine and, with Fred Sirieix as your guide, you'll discover how to get the flavour you want.

In Wine Uncorked, Fred decants a career's worth of expertise in his own friendly and accessible style, revealing how everything from price point to percentage impacts what ends up in your glass, how to decipher a label and which glass to use. He'll then take us on a tour of the regions, showing us how the landscape and climate work their magic on the wine produced around the world, highlighting key producers and notable vintages to suit all budgets along the way.

Illustrated throughout with handy infographics, regional maps and annotated wine labels, this is the book for anybody who has ever said, 'I wish I knew more about wine.'
