Part of book missing

While I've found the book book very informative and helpful, pages 601-624 are missing. I guess I shouldn't complain though, since I have pages 625-648 twice. Has anyone else noticed this in their 3rd edition? I can't believe mine is the only copy where this mistake has occurred.

a must!!

Fabulous help for all wine lovers. Easy to find information and great photos. A must have for casual wine lovers and professionals alike.

The 3rd Edition and the Best Yet!

I will keep this brief. This is the holy grail of wine knowledge. There is no finer reference that covers as wide a range of topics as this. My favorite part of this text is that other covered topics within a story have highlights so that you can flip to a new, related topic and expand your knowledge, much like a hyperlink on the web.

I am a Master of Wine student and this is indespensible. Buy this first then grab the World Atlas of Wine and the Sotheyby's Wine Encyclopedia. These are the three books that should be the cornerstone of any wine library.

Incredible amount of information

Having a healthy interest in wine (don't drink too much most of the time) this answers so many of the questions that I've had over the years. It gives many of the expected details of different wine regions and wine classifications throughout the world in great detail. It also gives information on the winemaking process, the different varieties, how to consume wine (storage, tasting), qualities and faults in wine, famous personalities/labels in wine and wine history. All this with some beautiful fullpage photographs, maps and diagrams. Makes a great present and should be a mandatory accessory for anyone with a substantial wine collection.
