Reviews
I like her style, her knowledge (and frankness), her choice of examples, her lightness of touch - in fact the whole package...All wine books claim to 'demystify'. Few recognize that mystery is part of the fun., The Pro Tips and Inside Tracks that Kelli shares throughout the book get right to the heart of wine and will help you make better decisions in restaurants, retail stores and around the dinner table., She is right there in the trenches with all the rest of us. Learning. Thinking. Having a great time. Falling in love with wine over and over again., "The book is flooded with warmth and unpretentious honesty. I put it down and felt like it had been a chat with a friend, at her kitchen table, while she pulled out bottles and showed me stuff that made her happy, that made her excited, and she just wanted to share what she knew. It feels as if White just wants to ignite a passion for wine in others. And so she's wrapped up all of everything she knows and loves in these 256 pages and handed it to the world." -Tamlyn Currin, Jancis Robinson, "Kelli A. White is a longtime sommelier who is also a terrific writer, unpretentious yet wise and conversational, as if you're sitting across a kitchen table with a couple of glasses, enjoying an afternoon. She manages the winning trick of being both authoritative and self-deprecating. For Ms. White, what's most important is developing a comfortable confidence in your own taste and preferences. She has no use for the pedantic rigidity that often characterizes such guides or the dumbing down of what really is a complicated subject. Instead, she focuses on what's essential to know as a beginner, leaving the more esoteric material for later." -Eric Asimov, The New York Times, Reading Kelli A White's words is like chatting with a best friend who also happens to be a wine pro -- it's honest, engaging, entirely without pretension, totally relatable and utterly fascinating., "White shows great ability to focus on and communicate the truly essential bits of information that can make the reader feel confident and eager to learn more - and relax into the leisure of a good bottle." -Ines Salpico, Decanter, "...a charming, unpretentious, conversational intro to wine with loads of information told winningly by a former sommelier who now runs the wine education program at Napa's Meadowood Resort." -Bloomberg, If you want to do wine and stay human, Kelli White's Wine Confident charts the route. It's all here - both the wine stuff and doing stuff with wine. Let this most unpretentious (and evidently kind-hearted) former sommelier chat to you over your shoulder. Drink up the wisdom. Enjoy the clarity and grace of her writing. By the end, you'll have all the tools you need to maximize wine pleasure while minimising wine stress., With so much information online and so many 'influencers,' it's easy to forget that wine enjoyment isn't a series of snapshots but a journey. Think of Kelli White as your knowledgeable, charming and funny tour guide, who will meet you at any point along your own wine trail., "Next time I'm asked about wine-breathing gadgets, I shall send the applicant straight to the Guide to Wine Gear section of Kelli A White's new book Wine Confident: There's No Wrong Way To Enjoy Wine (Académie du Vin Library, £25). 'In my opinionated opinion,' says White, 'the only "aerator" you'll ever need is a decanter.' Awarding bonus points here for the eyebrow-raise of the inverted commas around the word aerator.", The book is flooded with warmth and unpretentious honesty. I put it down and felt like it had been a chat with a friend, at her kitchen table, while she pulled out bottles and showed me stuff that made her happy, that made her excited, and she just wanted to share what she knew. , White shows great ability to focus on and communicate the truly essential bits of information that can make the reader feel confident and eager to learn more - and relax into the leisure of a good bottle., There are useful chapters on tasting and identifying different aromas and flavours, collecting and how to shop like a pro.

"White is funny, clever, brisk and talks on the page as if she's sharing a glass with you ... a hard recommend for beginners, but also anyone who still wonders, for example, how and when to decant." -- Victoria Moore, The Telegraph "Reading Kelli A White's words is like chatting with a best friend who also happens to be a wine pro -- it's honest, engaging, entirely without pretension, totally relatable and utterly fascinating." -- Club Enologique "Next time I'm asked about wine-breathing gadgets, I shall send the applicant straight to the Guide to Wine Gear section of Kelli A White's new book Wine Confident: There's No Wrong Way To Enjoy Wine..." -- Telegraph "For those becoming interested in wine but unsure of how to proceed, this is a terrific book." -- NY Times Kelli White loves every aspect of wine ('especially the science-y bits') and wants to ignite the same kind of passion in her readers. Here, she introduces the many ways in which we can taste it, talk it, appreciate it, choose it, understand it, and navigate its enjoyment with confidence. There are countless ways to engage with wine. If you are a history buff, it has a multi-thousand-year story to plumb. A lover of language and travel? Wine is being made in more countries than ever before and on every continent (except Antarctica). A foodie? Wine is a natural companion to food, and the two can interact in unexpectedly thrilling ways. For those who have fallen in love with wine already, this book is an imaginative and practical guide to embarking on its greatest adventures. For those who haven't yet, it is the spark to light the fuse...
