I have read a number of books on wine and taken classes to make me a bit more knowledgeable. I would say without fear that this is the best book on wine I have every run across. Any question you may have on wine, its source, area it comes from, history or type is covered in clear, concise and informative prose. Short of having a wine expert in your family, this is the best way to get information on various wines. This is an encyclopedic work and well worth the time to read and enjoy. It also makes a great gift for a wine lover or someone just trying to learn more about this wonderful drink.
