About this product

Product Information

On its first publication in 1983 this hilarious send-up of winetaster's jargon was hailed by `The Financial Times' as one of this year's bubbling successes . It has since been con-stantly reprinted to meet demand and has become a classic of its kind. For all those mysti-fied by the strange pontifications of wine-buffs, this is the perfect guide to the meaning behind distinctive nose , full bodied and elegant but lacks backbone .
