A Handy and Concise Referance March 12, 2006
Provides the beginner and not-so-expert expert with a wealth of wine information. Where is the 2006 edition???
 Don't waste your money! December 22, 2001

This book is not for beginers. The author gets into things that are not important. Who cares what wine goes with cheesecake, cashews or chocalate. That's by choice. I gave the book away to the waste management company.
 Maximum Info in a Quick Reference September 24, 2001
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have the 2000 version, just ordered the 2002 version. An excellent reference book for quick checks and general info. Contains more info than most, if not all wine books I have read/purchased. Just plain handy!
A very useful book for me, a beginer drinker. August 7, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As an absolute beginner, I like this book. It's straightforward, easy to understand. It's not pretentious as some other wine books. The most part I like about this book is that the every pronunciation of the wines and grapes are spelled out. It's very useful for someone like who doesn't know French or Italian. I wish it were on tape as well.
Good reference/overview on wines, wineries and varietals. June 23, 2000
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is an excellent reference book for either someone starting to enjoy wine or the more experienced wine drinker. It contains very good food / wine recommendations, wine ratings, winery ratings, wine definitions, and an overview of the wine growing regions of the world. Very comprehensive for a small book you can carry with you. It is well worth the money!
