Barbara Ensrud
A
respected journalist and wine connoisseur, Barbara Ensrud was formerly
based in New York. She now lives in Oxford, Mississippi. She is
a freelance wine journalist as well as regular contributor to the
Wall Street Journal, Parade, and Smart Money.
Ensrud's literary achievements include American Vineyards
(1988), a thorough and colorful guide to the nation's wine making
regions, and Wine With Food (1984), which includes menus
as well as a detailed discussion of delightful tastes. However,
in 1991 her most poplar publication, Best Wine Buys For $10 Or
Less, opened the door for countless Americans to the rich world
of wine, without the sour taste of poverty. Its successor, Best
Wine Buys for $12 and Under, is available in bookstores now.
