If I was an expert, of course, I could better "rate" this book!
I bought this for my husband so we could better understand what we were buying and zero in on products we would more likely enjoy.
Very thourough and interesting - lots of information and recommendations for a low price.
Great for beginners - easy to use April 8, 2007

This is a great book to keep by your bedside and read a chapter a night. It covers the basics on all the major wine regions of the world. You won't be an "expert" when you read this but you'll feel more confident and know the basics. I wish there was more about food and wine pairing, though.
An Extensive Reference On Wine April 6, 2007

This book touches on so many wine-related topics that it could probably replace three or four books on your shelf. I like that it is designed in such a way that you can flip through any section and get the info you want without having to read the whole book.
I do think the book is a little "old school" as far as wine education goes and tends present information as rules as opposed to presenting the topic wine as fun. But if you want to learn about wine, the book is packed with info to help you sniff, swirl and sip like a pro.
