I continue to use this book as a resource for wine pairings and information regarding the wine's breeding and hybridizing. Makes for an excellent companion to tasting books. A must-read for people after a few wine tasting trips.

The Wine Bible

I am in the wine industry and this is always the first wine book I go to for an answer. It is a comprehensive wine reference book that I dub "The Wine Bible". In the morning this book is either still on my chest or on the floor next to my bed.

Great Wine Book

An outstanding reference. Covers just about everything you need or want to know about the world of wine. I just open the book to a random page and enjoy reading it. I teach an introduction to wine course at a local university and I find the book gets me details I cannot find in other places. For lme at least it is fun to read.

Not enuf stuff

Though I've hardly read the entire tome, my quick reaction is that I'm missing being able to look up specific wines from specific vineyards. Only select and generally quite famous wines and vineyards are mentioned and even with those, we are not told which vintages are special or to be avoided. A lot of money for a text book that is not a consumer's guide.
