John Cleese created this wonderful beginner’s guide to understanding and appreciating wine. He guides you through six major varietals (3 red, 3 white), introduces common useful words to describe wines that you like, and teaches you how to combat snobbery from a pompous sommelier.

The overarching theme is that wine should be enjoyed, not feared, and that most people can’t tell a $5 bottle from a $200–which doesn’t matter so long as they enjoy what they’re drinking.
