The Wine Questionnaire follows in the spirit of our popular Proust Questionnaire and Fashion Questionnaire, using the format of Proust’s handy interview helper—here reworked by Jay McInerney — to ask everything about wine, from your favorite region to your choice food pairings. Featuring the handwritten answers of discerning oenophiles such as Robert Parker, Daniel Boulud, and Sofia Coppola, in addition to blank questionnaires in the back to share with friends, this title will reveal more than you might imagine.
