An Epicurean Odyssey: Sommelier Stories is Robert Giorgione's second
book. It is a personalised journey through food and wine embellished
with mouth-watering anecdotes and experiences. Think of an exciting
blend of Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential", a Quentin Tarantino
movie, a hint of Keith Floyd, a large portion of wonderfully-evocative
memories, a splash of "Sideways" and a dash of controversy thrown in for
good measure and you have "Sommelier Stories". It also features many
recipes from family, friends and well-known chefs all with bespoke wine
pairings. "Sommelier Stories" also includes links to websites, blog
articles, videos, interviews, tasting notes, reviews and great food and
wine matching ideas. Robert Giorgione has been a highly respected
sommelier since 1997, having worked in some of the most high profile
restaurants in the UK. In 2009 he established his independent wine
consultancy. Connect with Robert at www.rovingsommelier.com Twitter
