N EW BOOKS Swallow This
The Progressive Approach to Wine
Mark Phillips
Tune out the critics. Ignore ratings,
medals and the wine glass manu- facturers' lobby. Swirl, smell and sip. But above all, don't spit. That's
the nutshell
description of the progressive message of the iconoclastic host of public television's Enjoying Wine with Mark Phillips. His new book brings a truly new, every-day method to wine appreciation. Just some of the topics Mark covers are: when to microwave wine; when to freeze wine; the advantages of storing wine in Tupperware or plastic bottles; how to blend wine at home to make it taste better; the benefit of adding ice cubes to wine; when to send back a wine at a restaurant, even if you just don't like it; and much more. Swallow This brings a refreshingly original style of instruction to a crowded market of wine books. And it aims to change the way America views wine.

“Wine comes in at the mouth; And love comes in at the eye; That's all we shall know for truth; Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you, and I sigh.” —William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
