Corker Hardcover – July 18, 2024
So much of what we drink and how we drink it is rooted in occasion. What bottle do you buy the first time you meet the in-laws? What do you order on a date that’s going well? If it's not going well? What should you drink on a plane? Pairing sage advice with Hannah’s signature tongue-in-cheek humour, this is a deeply unserious wine book that celebrates the joy of everyday drinking.
Corker is a guide for wine novices staring nonplussed at supermarket shelf, as well as wine lovers who might already know their Chablis from their Chenin, but still need some inspiration when picking the best bottle for their budget and the occasion.

Hannah provides an insight to types of wine for different occasions and shows that you don’t have to be nervous of a lengthy wine menu.
As for the one star critic, I believe this is the kind of wine snobbery that I detest. There’s no fakery here, just information that helps novices without feeling stupid. It’s an unserious book that had me giggling and trying a few of the suggestions. How can you take a “wine expert” seriously who describes a wine as crunchy? That’s the type of BS snobbery I will steer clear of. Corker is a great book and I highly recommend!
However, reading this morning was making me really crave a glass of wine and got me thinking, what would be the ‘wine for breakfast’ recommendation… book 2 perhaps🤔
