Reviews / Votes
Acclaimed wine writer and co-launcher of the world's biggest wine competition, "International Wine Challenge", Robert Joseph, brings all the information you will ever need about wine between the covers of this highly informative and often entertaining guidebook. From the background and insider's view of the industry through how to choose, store, and serve wine, to food/wine recommendations and an extensive 2003 wine catalogue including competition winners. The guide is well laid-out and easy to understand, intelligent enough to appease wine connoisseurs and simple enough for the novice. This is an ideal gift for all those interested in vinous facts and flavours. - Lucy WatsonMore details
