Publisher description -- The contributors of Wines of the World have looked both at classic wines of long standing and at exciting newcomers to the top class. They recognize that wine-drinkers today want to know how their wines are made and from what grape varieties, the tastes they are likely to find and the styles of wine emerging from different soils and climates. Laws have changed, and some wines with them. Drinkers are less conservative, and this book also aims to point to lesser-known wines which are emerging from purely local appreciation.
Approaching wine from the reader's point of view, Joanna Simon breaks down the barriers and lays bare all the components that make up the taste of wine. As well as giving a fresh perspective on tasting, serving, storing and matching wine with food, Discovering Wine explores the fundamental ingredients - showing clearly what the grapes contribute to the wine and how the winemakers use them to their advantage.

The world's best-selling annual wine guide. Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book is the essential reference book for everyone who buys wine - in shops, restaurants, or on the internet. Now in its 45th year of publication, it has no rival as the comprehensive, up-to-the-minute annual guide. It provides clear succinct facts and commentary on the wines, growers and wine regions of the whole world. It reveals which vintages to buy, which to drink and which to cellar, which growers to look for and why. Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book gives clear information on grape varieties, local specialities and how to match food with wines that will bring out the best in both. This latest edition of Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book includes a colour supplement: The Ten Best Things About Wine Right Now.
"I traveled over the course of almost two years with photographer Estanis Núñez, an old friend of mine, just like we used to in our rock'n'roll days, taking photos, eating and drinking together. This book contains 14 profiles of vignerons, each of them different, spanning most of the wine-producing regions of Spain. There are others, but this is my personal selection. Their profiles talk about the history, landscape, vineyards, cuisine, passion and tradition of their region. You won't find tannins, anthocyanins, vintages, points or tasting notes here. I am hardly going to talk about wine at all. But you will find the often-forgotten human side and the context of what is in the bottle, including local cuisine (where wine plays an important role) as well as each winegrower's personal take on it. . Their main aim in life is to portray the uniqueness of their vineyards, villages and landscapes through a bottle of wine. Wine that can transport you back to the time and place it was produced the moment you drink it. These are the new vignerons. A new generation of Spanish winegrowers."
