5 out of 5 stars a must!!   November 29, 2007
Fabulous help for all wine lovers. Easy to find information and great photos. A must have for casual wine lovers and professionals alike.


5 out of 5 stars The 3rd Edition and the Best Yet!   November 25, 2007

I will keep this brief. This is the holy grail of wine knowledge. There is no finer reference that covers as wide a range of topics as this. My favorite part of this text is that other covered topics within a story have highlights so that you can flip to a new, related topic and expand your knowledge, much like a hyperlink on the web.

I am a Master of Wine student and this is indespensible. Buy this first then grab the World Atlas of Wine and the Sotheyby's Wine Encyclopedia. These are the three books that should be the cornerstone of any wine library.

5 out of 5 stars A Most Incredible Wine Reference Book   August 8, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This book is truly incredible and can best be described as an encyclopedia of wine. Printed on 816 pages of fine paper with sporadic full color photographs and pencil drawings, it is atypical of other books on wine. There no novice section, stemware identification guide or chapter on building your own cellar. This is the book you want in you hands to aid in locating those rare areas of production and defining little known terms. Robinson draws on approximately 150 contributors, highly qualified experts in their respective fields, to author select entries.
