Alpana Pours is a unique lifestyle book with wine as the centerpiece. Since American women purchase and consume more wine than American men, 77% and 60% respectively, a voice is needed to help women understand that their busy professional and social lifestyles can be well paired with wine. Master Sommelier and successful television host Alpana Singh, 29, is just the person to help them do it.

Alpana is uniquely qualified to talk about wine, contemporary women and relationships. She spent five years as sommelier at a world-famous four star restaurant, where she closely observed the sometimes humorous, sometimes absurd, social interactions between men and woman at all stages of their relationships.

Readers will learn how to select wine when entertaining important clients, pair wine with food they and their partner are preparing together, choose the right wines for special occasions--weddings, anniversaries, bridal showers, a first meeting with a boyfriend's parents--and what wine to, or not to, order on a first date. Alpana Pours supplies tips on these and a myriad of other topics including "dating" and "dealing with guys."
