Product Description
The tenth edition of Italian Wines , published by Gambero Rosso and Slow Food Editore, a translation of the twentieth edition of the Italian version, is the world's most complete guide to quality Italian wines. Richer and more complete than ever, its 960 pages assess over 2,200 wine producers and their labels. Over 16,000 wines are reviewed, selected by a team of more than 120 tasters under the direction of GR and SFE. Italian Wines 2007 , besides evaluating wines according to the classic categories of one, two or three glasses, also includes a useful series of appendixes about award-winning wines in the past and the best producers. The guide also pays special attention to wineries that are sensitive to the environment and to achieving naturalness in their products.

Not usable for assistance in buying Italian Wine February 11, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this book in an attempt to make more informed decisions on my Italian wine purchases. I live in a predominately Italian section of my city, and have access to a wide variety of Italian wines. However, it is nearly impossible to either find any wine in the book that matches up completely, or to look up wines that are available on the shelf to see what they may be like. I do not recommend this book for casual Italian wine drinker that is looking for assistance in buying retail.

Slow Food Book, Slow Reading January 4, 2008
Not a bad review of Italian wines. Just so many of them and in minute detail. No highs and no lows, either. Reads like it was written and rewritten by a committee. Since I love most Italian wines, particularly the reds, I would like to have seen more personalized impressions.

The "Bible" of Italian wines. Most of the Italian wines found in good wine shops can be found in this book so you can compare before buying and the critiques are "right on".

review August 7, 2007
I sell Italian wine, so this is primarily a reference book. This is one of 3 or 4 that we use to keep up with what the world thinks of our winw. Invaluable . . . Bur next year, I think I will go online and find the information I need. I can get it from my producers. Thanks
