Book description
The original and best, "Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book" is
the ultimate compact guide. Now in its 34th edition, it is the UK's
number one wine book appealing to wine-lovers and professionals alike.
It is the key reference for enthusiasts, investors and collectors and
this year's edition boasts up-to-date news on more than 6,000 wines,
growers, and regions, plus invaluable vintage information from experts
around the world. A new colour supplement focuses on the array of wines
from Spain, while a new section offers the reader alternative wines to
try based on those they already drink. More than 200 of Johnson's
favourites for 2011 are also included. Hugh Johnson's winning formula of
insight, critical appraisal of the world of wine, plus vintage news has
never been bettered. During the past four decades he has written many
books that have become landmark titles, including his classic "The
World Atlas of Wine", co-authored with Jancis Robinson and
published this year in a new compact format as "The Concise World
Atlas of Wine", and his "Wine Companion", which is fully
updated for 2010.
