By: Jordan Salcito

A playful and approachable guide to discovering and embracing wine that you love, from the former director of Momofuku's lauded wine program and founder of Ramona wine spritzes.

Jordan Salcito grew up enjoying wine but not always understanding why she liked what she did. Over years of tasting wine and spearheading award-winning programs for places like the Momofuku restaurant group, she created her own language and framework for choosing the perfect bottle. Using her personal journey as a template, she demystifies this beloved beverage for everyone, sharing vital information so you can be confident in finding wines that you love, too.

Jordan leads you through the wine making process, from the importance of soil quality to the best harvesting practices, explaining how each influences the final product. She then tracks the bottle from the winery to your table and offers advice on navigating restaurant wine lists and cultivating your own tastes so you can find your new favorites. Jordan also teaches you how to define a personalized value system using your own tasting descriptors so you can drink what you love.

Full of practical advice on understanding your beverage arsenal, as well as questions, illustrations, and infographs, Smart Mouth gives you permission to drink what you love, from boxed wine to top-shelf bottles—trends and prestige be damned. You'll know what wine tools you actually need and what to get instead of champagne when you're hosting on a budget. The wine world is large, but figuring out what you love doesn't have to be overwhelming. The only expert in what tastes delicious to you is you. Smart Mouth will help you discover what that is.
