RANCHO RIO, NEW MEXICO - Master Sommelier Tim Gaiser, one of less than 300 individuals worldwide to achieve this prestigious title, announces the release of his new book "Strong Water: Tales from a Master Sommelier's Life in Wine and Restaurants." The collection of essays draws from Gaiser's three decades in the wine and restaurant industry, delivering a blend of expert insight, humor, and memorable stories from the front lines of fine dining.
Following the success of his acclaimed technical guide "Message in the Bottle: A Guide to Tasting Wine" (2022), Gaiser now shares the lighter side of his career, from harrowing adventures opening champagne bottles to surviving international wine trips. The book takes readers behind the scenes of the sommelier world, offering an entertaining glimpse into the culture of wine and restaurants.
QUOTE FROM YOU HERE ABOUT WHY YOU PUBLISHED THE BOOK
"These stories have been percolating for years," says Gaiser. "Whether it's dealing with a corked poncho in Chile or navigating a formal wine service gone wrong, the wine world is full of moments that are simultaneously nerve-wracking and hilarious. I wanted to capture that spirit while sharing what I've learned along the way."
Organized into seven sections including "Tales of the Sommelier," "Notes from the Road," and "Food," the book combines practical wine knowledge with engaging storytelling. Gaiser's background as a classical musician (he holds an M.A. in Classical Music and performed with the San Francisco Opera Orchestra) brings a unique perspective to his wine writing.
"Strong Water" will appeal to wine enthusiasts, restaurant industry professionals, and anyone who enjoys a good story well told. The book releases on December 12, 2024 and will be available through major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Apple Books.
