Thirsty is more than a wine guide; it’s the story of one man’s lifelong love affair with the great, big beautiful world of wine.

Join Tom as he journeys from French châteaux and English vineyards to the unsung aisles of Sainsbury’s, Majestic and – rest in peace – Oddbins. Along the way, you’ll discover 100 Wine W*nker approved bottles and learn how to:

- read a label (even if you can’t speak the language)
- talk wine without sounding naff
- choose wine in a restaurant
- explain why some wine smells like your granny’s cardigan

'Finally a wine book that's as moreish as my Malbec. I laughed, learned a bit and lapped up a glass of wine or three' (Alan Carr)
An enormously entertaining read
This engaging book…woven with lots of inspiration for the wannabe wine buff, is a significant achievement
[An] entertaining autobiographical book
Fascinating… There are laugh-out-loud moments, and real excitement and heart in this book… a full-bodied book that’s really got legs
A vibrant memoir-meets-guide bursting with 100 unforgettable wines and even juicier stories behind them

A very interesting book that is enthusiastic about ensuring the enjoyment of wine, as opposed to simply making you more knowledgeable, although it does educate as well. Tom comes across as being much calmer and more reflective than he does on social media, which is a good thing for a 7-hour book. The book makes me want to run to my nearest wine merchant.

My only minor gripe is that, for an audio book, the audible chapters are too long. They are all between 35-55 minutes each. It would be better if there were more shorter segments. The book is written with sub-sections within chapters so it wouldn't have been hard to do.

Gilbey has done a great job of this book. Stuffed full of wine education but woven into his life story, filled with comedy and drama. Excellently narrated.

Fun and educational
