This is not a wine book - this is a book about making a good life, and the great bottles you might sip while you do so. For Tom Gilbey, the two are inseparable. Hailing from the first British family to own a vineyard and chateau in Burgundy in the 1800s, having a taste for wine is part of the Gilbey DNA. In this book, Tom takes you under the bonnet of a wine dealer, charting lessons from his three decades in the wine business and five decades on the planet. From how to detect if a batch of wine is ''good shit'', to maybe killing George Michael to falling in love and using wine knowledge as a courting method, Tom is here to level up your vino game with 100 wines and myriad anecdotes that will have you rolling on the floor. Along the way, you may also become a pro at ordering from any wine list, skipping wines that aren''t worth the cost in the wine aisle and getting a great deal on the good stuff.
