Authoritative, international and uptodate, The New Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia is arranged geographically and combines maps and photographs with information on all winegrowing areas, profiles of distinguished producers and assessments of individual wines. The book's easyreference style, and wealth of practical advice, make it an unrivaled source of information for all lovers of wine from the occasional drinker to the connoisseur. Wines of the World. Distinguished wine authority Tom Stevenson examines the viticultural history of each winemaking country, discussing its wineproducing regions and the current reputation of its wines. He analyzes the factors affecting the taste and quality of each region's wines location, aspect, soil, microclimates, grape varieties, and methods of viticulture and vinification before assessing its appellations, the individual wine producers (chateaux or wineries), and, of course, the wines themselves. Enjoying Wine. Tom Stevenson provides practical guidelines on wine tasting, while an 'author's choice' chart at the end of each section lists the very best wines. A starrating system identifies the finest producers and highlights those offering the best value. A 'taste chart' explains how to identify the flavors in a wine, and a 'troubleshooter's guide' spots common wine flaws. Whether you are a newcomer wanting to explore the pleasures of wine or a wine enthusiast looking for inspiration, The New Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia is the book to consult again and again.
