10 wine tips to save you time, money and aggravation

Wine should be a laugh, not a lecture, which accurately sums up wine expert, Christine Ansbacher's, approach to the topic. She is known as the "The Wine Diva" because she injects a theatrical flair and sense of humor into her wine tastings. She speaks at corporate receptions, dinners and conferences all over the US. Her presentations are lively, fast-paced, and interactive, and create a sense of ease and adventure about wine. She doesn't tell her audiences how the soil and climate affect the taste of a wine, nor describe wines in flowery language like, "this wine tastes like blueberries with a whiff of smoky bacon fat and tar." Instead, she shares practical advice on how to spot great values and smart splurges at the restaurant and the wine store; how to drink better wine and pay less; and some simple guidelines for food and wine pairing. The practical tips, insider secrets and shortcuts she shares at her wine events are all contained in her new book, "Secrets from The Wine Diva: Tips on Buying, Ordering & Enjoying Wine."
