A Real Gem of a Book (4/5 people found this helpful)
I discovered this very helpful book while on holiday in Oz. As a novice wine taster,a previous edition served as my bible while visiting the Hunter Valley Region.The wine descriptions are still very vivid in this edition and will fire the imagination of any wine lover. The book is very well laid out providing clear quality and value ratings as well as background information on the different wine regions, on top of all that the book also gives recommendations on food/wine combinations. The only flaw in this book is that quite a few of the wines just aren't easily available in the UK, if at all (which is why it only got 4 stars). But don't let this dissuade you as new Aussie wines are always appearing in the UK.
