Fifth Edition.
This undisputed classic has been completely revised and updated to keep abreast of the changing world of wine. Winemaking - and wine appreciation - never stands still. The Old World has risen to the challenge of the New: new laws abound; previously obscure wines and wine regions are coming to the fore; winemakers are taking their skills into new areas and new countries, learning from one another all the time. Everywhere standards of winemaking are being raised in response to the unrelenting pressure for quality in place of quantity.
This new edition guides the wine-lover and professional through the world's vineyards as they enter the 21st century. Every one of the maps has been revised, extended where necessary and brought up to date. There are totally new mapping areas, a new introductory section on the background to wine and its enjoyment, new artwork, photographs, fact boxes and tables.
