Relying on an array of Hungarian source materials, Lambert-Gcs sets the information out in encyclopedia fashion, with easily digested A to Z entries in four categories: People; Places; Vineyard-Tracts; Grape Varieties and Wine-making.

If you read wine reviews from time to time, youre already either amused or confused by the soaring language wine writers often use to describe what theyre smelling and tasting. But do you always know what they mean? Have you ever sipped a complex white and sensed whats so colorfully described as a peacocks tail? Have you ever savored a full-bodied red only to detect the ripe acrid smell of a horse stall? If not, youre in for a treat, because these and thousands more are all here to amuse, dismay, enlighten, inspire, puzzle and utterly shock you. In that spirit, welcome to the rich linguistic universe of wWineSpeak where words and wine intersect (some say, collide) in an uncontrolled riot of language guaranteed to keep you entertained for hours. Theres no other book in the English-speaking world quite like this. The author, a lifelong lover of both wine and words, has compiled and organized this unique thesaurus of 36,975 wine tasting descriptors into 20 special collections extracted from 27 categories so you can locate exactly the right term or phrase to express yourself clearly or to understand others.
