I always wanted a crash course on wine that didn't require endless hours of studying while leaving me with an empty bank account. Courtney's book is beautifully written, easy to read, memorable, and most importantly informative. If it worked for me, it can work for anyone!

I loved Courtney's book because of its accessibility - I was surprised at how thoroughly it covers all types of wine while still being fun to read. The book is a lot like one of Courtney's events - it's casual, tasteful, and fun.
