Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted a good book to take my rather modest knowledge of wine to the next level, and to put it on a more systematic basis. This book fit the bill. Also of the several dozen top titles I've looked at so far, this is my favorite just to read and enjoy. The encyclopedia type format is very convenient for reference, but the text is a lot more interesting than your typical encyclopedia. The maps are beautiful, detailed, and a useful learning tool for getting to know the details of the terroir. I often pick this book up just to browse, or to get a quick handle on a particular region or type of wine. This new addition adds about 20 new articles especially on southern hemisphere wines, reflecting their increasing importance. A truly great book on wine and rightly deserving of its reputation.Book Review: Great gift!

Gave this as a gift to a developing oenophile. The book is beautiful, easy to read and understand, and filled with useful information. It makes a terrific gift.
