A Handy and Concise Referance

Provides the beginner and not-so-expert expert with a wealth of wine information. Where is the 2006 edition???

Maximum Info in a Quick Reference

I have the 2000 version, just ordered the 2002 version. An excellent reference book for quick checks and general info. Contains more info than most, if not all wine books I have read/purchased. Just plain handy!

A very useful book for me, a beginer drinker.

As an absolute beginner, I like this book. It's straightforward, easy to understand. It's not pretentious as some other wine books. The most part I like about this book is that the every pronunciation of the wines and grapes are spelled out. It's very useful for someone like who doesn't know French or Italian. I wish it were on tape as well.

Good reference/overview on wines, wineries and varietals.

This is an excellent reference book for either someone starting to enjoy wine or the more experienced wine drinker. It contains very good food / wine recommendations, wine ratings, winery ratings, wine definitions, and an overview of the wine growing regions of the world. Very comprehensive for a small book you can carry with you. It is well worth the money!
