 The quintessential gourmet magazine October 27, 2001

Whether you're a wine collector, a connosiuer, a novice with passion to learn more about wine, or a "foodie", your interests will be well-served with a subscription to "Wine Spectator".
"Wine Spectator" is always current on the hip trends, prices, and hot picks among wines and never seems to miss a beat with their thorough reviews. They know what's hot and what's not -- and if you're like most of the population and can't spend $400.00 on a bottle of wine, or don't feel that you know enough to even enjoy a $400.00 bottle of wine, don't worry -- they don't cater to only and upper eschelon of wine drinkers. "Wine Spectator" makes recommendations and highlights wines in all prices ranges, defying the myth that a good bottle of wine has to be expensive. Additionally, I've always found "Wine Spectator" wine ratings to be consistent- using their 100-point rating system.
Issues of "Wine Spectator" are hearty and filled with information. While it has it'!s share of advertisements, it's not overwhelming like, for instance, your average glamour magazine with 10 pages of ads for every one page of content!
Whether you're looking to know what your wine cellar is worth with current pricing, want to know if you should drink or hold, want to read more wine reviews, or just want to learn more about the fine art of wine appreciation, "Wine Spectator" is a great subscription pick.
The best wine resource out there October 27, 2001
1 out of 7 found this review helpful
Whether you're a collector of fine wines or just like the occasional bottle of red, Wine Spectator is an invaluable resource. Each issue has features that focus on different wine types or regions, as well as dining and travel articles. The best part, however, are the wine reviews. Wine Spectator's ratings are some of the most accurate and well respected. Aside from rating somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 wines per issue, they feature wines in different categories from Cellar Selections (wines meant to be aged), to great wines at affordable prices. So if you like wine, you'll love this magazine.
