Book Reviews of The New Spain: A Complete Guide to Contemporary Spanish Wine

Book Review: A great reference...
Summary: 5 Stars

Spain is fast becoming a premium-wine producing country. Critics like Robert Park and Stephen Tanzer have taken notice, giving mid-priced wines 90+. This book is not a buying guide but a straight-forward overview of the various regions of Spain. For those unfamiliar with regions like Toro DO, Yecla DO, Jumilla DO, Radford provides both insight into the climates, soils, history and some of the top-wine producers of each area, from Riax Baixas in the north to Jerez and the Canary Islands in the south. If wine is your profession or simply your pleasure, this book is a great reference. I work in retail and have taken courses through WSET - this book is my constant companion whether I'm buying or selling. "The New France" and "New Italy" are equally excellent.
