Customer Review: Just Plain Fun

Rosen's writing is creative and appealing without seeming forced, which is rare. This book will entertain even those who don't feel compelled to read everything ever written about the world of wine. Give this book to someone who's never read a wine book and they'll laugh their way through it before realizing how much they've learned.

Rosen is one of the food and wine writers I turn to when I want a little bit o' fun inserted into my day. She reminds me of what attracted me to the wine business in the first place. I can't read Rosen without smiling.
