I want to become a wine snob.
I never thought I'd be a wine drinker, but I've recently doscovered that I like it. I want to learn as much as I can about what wine goes with what food and how it's made and all that. So please tell me what books, magazines, websites, etc. to read, and anything else I should do to learn.

Re: I want to become a wine snob.
Wine critics are often hilarious, but there really is a heck of a lot of expertise involved, and you can't blame the wines for the posers. Good wine is really enjoyable stuff that can seem light years from ordinary crap, and well worth knowing a little about.

Re: I want to become a wine snob.
A good friend of mine is a Somalea (sp?), i've learnt pretty much everything I know about wine from her, or what she's recommended for me...(a couple books).

I haven't seen Sideways.
I don't mean "snob" as in I want to start wearing yellow sweaters and go around the room at the country club and parties and boast about my encyclopedic knowledge of wine. I just said snob for lack of a better term. |

then you SHOULD watch it - those guys REALLY get into their wines - I didn't know there were people like that who weren't alcoholics.
