TYPES OF WINE

[mrdutton]

Hello fellow Delawarean - I was born and raised in Newark. From whence do you hail?

Go to the local book store and peruse the various tomes you find there about wines. One that comes to mind (no insult intended) is Wine for Dummies. Many people have suggested this book for wine beginners, even though the title puts me off a bit.

The book I started with was Larousse Encyclopedia of Wine. Barnes and Nobel has this in stock.

Find a good wine shop nearby and make yourself known to the staff. Ask questions, listen to their advice. Try different wines and establish your own tastes.

The above are but a few suggestions. You'll find a lot of very good information on this site. Look around and read as many of the postings as you can.

And above all, come back and ask as many questions as you wish. We will be glad to answer them, of that I am certain.
