Noteworthy Wines: A Taster’s Log
The perfect companion on winery tours, tasting sessions or everyday dining. The log is designed to record data about favorite wines, and is sprinkled with delightful pen-and-ink illustrations and fascinating quotations. Rich brass wire binding and an elastic strap makes this very "totable". This is the small format (4"x5"), with space for notes on 48 wines.
Customer Review: This book almost has it right . . . .
If only it were organized just a tad differently. Finding a wine journal to keep at home and record our favorite wines as we encounter them is tough. There's just not much out there that is big enough to keep all my info in. Most, it seems are designed to schlep back and forth to restaurants or wineries. This size of this book relative to a wine label is okay, maybe a bit on the small size, but still workable. I thought the spiral binding was appropriate for a book with pages that will force it to get bigger because of added labels. The biggest drawback however, is the page layout. There are several pages to list your favorite wines, however the place to paste the corresponding label is on the back of the page AND there is only one place to paste a label for every 3 or 4 wines listed. Ultimately I ended up returning the book.
