1. I bought this book after reading Joseph's French Wines. This one is very different - more of an encyclopedia - but it has the same forthright opinions and the same down-to-earth approach. I'd compare it to the Hugh Johnson Pocket Encyclopedia, but it's easier to use and offers more in its introductory sections. I plan to buy several copies as gifts for friends who want to learn more about wine.

1. I found this book to be very informative and extremely fast reading. I am not one to fully immerse myself into a book, but I found myself becoming more interested in the subject, page-by-page. If anyone is a novice like myself in the field of wines, I highly recommend this book. It will bring you up to speed in no-time!



2. I found this book to be very readable and inforamative. It covers many different types of grapes, winemaking, wine regions around the country, and a variety of other things that I found interesting. It doesn't get bogged down in jargon, doesn't tell you what wine to drink with what, rather it lets you see how wine regions are shaped and why they are so appealing. I would definitely recommend this book to you!!



3. Not at all what I was looking for. There are several books out there that cover wine and its origins better than this one.
