The Wine Bible (Karen MacNeil, Workman, 2001)
Thoughts so far: all adjectives used to describe wine are fundamentally not quantifiable (e.g. "hot," "languid," "supple"); the point seems to be to learn which words can't be used at the same time (e.g. "sweet" and "dry") and then pair a few that can, and try to make an argument. This strategy is not unlike participating in discussion sections without doing the reading.

- My name is Liz. I used to study Economics in New England (because variables and extreme weather bring me satisfaction); before that, I lived on an unpaved road in one of the square states, where I mostly read things. Now, I live and work in Los Angeles, with my breathtakingly witty husband and our dog, who I suspect may actually be a troubled Eastern European poet. I love The Economist, bluegrass, socializing over Mexican food, and spending time in the desert.
