161.Burgundy and Its Wines by: Nicholas Faith March 04, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £6.39
Before buying this book I made the mistake of thinking that, because it was shown as published in 2008, it had been revised. In fact, it appears to be simply a paperback version of the 2002 hardback - for example the Introduction apparently dates from 1999, and the copywright is still 2002. Having said that, this is a very readable, enjoyable book. If you are looking for a list of wines with tasting notes and recommendations, you are looking in the wrong book. If you want something of the atmosphere and spirit of Burgundy, this is a the right book. Mr Faith really knows this area of France and its people, and an enormous amount about the winemaking techniques and the vagaries of the terroir, and at times makes one believe one ... Read More:

163.Hugh Johnson's Wine Companion: The Encyclopaedia of Wines, Vineyards and Winemakers (Hugh Johnson's Wine Companion: The Encyclopedia of Wines, Vineyards, & Winemakers) by: Hugh Johnson October 16, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £16.72
Having read hugh johnsons other books like the pocket wine guide I decided to purchase this book. It is fascinating I would advise anyone looking to buy the book should have a basic understanding of wine making in order to understand it. But even for a beginner this book is good as it breaks down everything you need to know about wines, where their from, how their made & miost importantly how to drink them!

166.Virgile's Vineyard: A Year in the Languedoc Wine Country by: Patrick Moon March 15, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £2.10
I bought this as a wine enthusiast. In his year off in the Languedoc Patrick Moon was lucky to come across Virgile who needed every spare pair of hands in his struggle to produce wines in the traditional way, true to the terroir - rather than selling out as bulk production to the local co-operative. After reading the book I was pleased to see that Virgile's 2001 is one of the few Coteaux de Languedoc to be awarded 2 stars in a leading 2004 French wine guide. While vines and wine making are at the heart of the book, its appeal is far wider. the fun really starts when the bottles get opened - usually at the instigation of Moon's neighbour and self-appointed wine guide, Manu. The tone of the book is set at their first encounter over a bottle of next ... Read More:

Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £25.00 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £27.53
This wonderfully descriptive book lures you into trying bottles that you would otherwise not even know about. I have probably paid for the book by knowing what to choose before I shop. I am learning a lot and feel I can trust the author's reviews.

169.Oz Clarke's New Essential Wine Book: An Indispensable Guide to the Wines of the World by: Oz Clarke October 30, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £3.40
Have been buying books about wine for 25 years. This is one of the best books I have read for a long time. Very good for first timers, read the section on wine types etc. Excellent reviews of the worlds wine regions for those with more knowledge. In all an excellent book.

170.Science of Wine: From Vine to Glass by: Jamie Goode March 01, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £15.20
Phylloxera, Oxidation, Reduction, Terroir, Irrigation, Micro-oxygenation - everything you needed to know about wine but didn't know how to ask. For the midly curious through to wine connoisseur, this book breaks down the science behind every facet of wine in a manner that is easily consumed for everyone, not an easy feat. Really enjoyed reading this book cover to cover, but it also serves as a great reference.
