Welcome to the board. Suggest you read as much as you can get your hands on. Popular magazines include Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Food & Wine and Wine & Spirits. Excellent books include Larousse Encyclopedia of Wine, The Oxford Companion to Wine, Great Wine Made Simple, Foodie's book - can't find it on the shelf right now - there's a bunch of reading ahead for you. And taste - go to tastings at retailers', festivals, whereever you can find wines served in small portions for tasting. Make notes, read and taste some more. And have fun.
