5 out of 5 stars One of the best wine books I've read...   June 7, 2007
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Witty and humorous and packed with real-world examples that stay in your memory.


2 out of 5 stars Practical but off-putting   February 6, 2007
 3 out of 9 found this review helpful

Beyond the valuable practical advice offered in this book, particularly in using Excel to organize a wine collection, and helpful delineation of wine collector "types", I was put off by the obvious focus on über expensive wines and the sexist nature of many of the comments and stories.


5 out of 5 stars Entertaining Wine Tales and Practical Advice   June 15, 2006
Carte du Vin proprietor Jeff Smith spins highly entertaining tales and offers excellent practical advice largely based on his time in other people's cellars. Depending on your wine budget, Smith's experiences will offer either vicarious thrills or buying suggestions. Those with small cellars will want to organize them using Smith's system. Those with large cellars will want to hire this man.


5 out of 5 stars Great Stuff for the Wine Lover Unorganized or Not   May 26, 2006
 3 out of 6 found this review helpful

As most of my friends and family know, I love wine. I most partial to the Cabs, BUT if the mood and food call for it I like a Shiraz too. However, they also know I'm too busy to keep anything in any kind of order. This book is great. Offering insight to collectors and how to keep inventory. I am now proud of collection and more importantly I know what's in it. The Best Cellar is smart, funny, and great for any wine lover from a 'perfectionist' to a 'wannabe'.


5 out of 5 stars A Must Read   May 18, 2006
Now, I get it. My wines were a mess, but The Best Cellar is a huge help in getting my cellar organized. It is also enjoyable to read.
