5 comments about The New Spain: A Complete Guide to Contemporary Spanish Wine.
- Very good photos, commentary, wine routes suggested (tho I did not take one)significant properties listed, very good maps. They don't come any better, tho Spain is changing so fast I hope an update will come out.
- I'll be brief: there is no finer in depth book about Spanish wine on the market to date. I cannot recommend the books published by Mitchell Beazley highly enough. I have found them indespensible for my studies towards my Master of Wine.
Pros: beautiful photos, in depth regional info, producer bios.
Cons: you need a 'decent' wine education before tackling this one.
- The New Spain is a great guide toward learning about and understanding everything related to Wine in Spain! If you are interested in learning more about Spainish Wine this is the book to get!!
- This is a ok overview of spanish wine regions. However, it fails as a buying guide; there is no insight into "hot" areas, where producers are producing exceptional wines at very attractive prices. Areas such as Montsant, Almansa, Bullas, Gigals, Valdeorras, Ribera del Jucar are doing great things, but you would never know it, based on this book, unfortunately.
- 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.
