Certified Sommelier/CEO Consultant Jim Schleckser told me last year during a Vine Guy podcast episode that he was going to write a book about entertaining in a professional setting. Well, he did it! Professional Drinking: A Spirited Guide to Wine, Cocktails and Confident Business Entertaining is out this week and Jim joins me on the podcast to talk about his new book and give a few tips on ordering wine in a restaurant. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or new to the wine game, you’re going to want to drink in this fun and enjoyable episode with my friend, Jim Schleckser.
