This title remains an authoritative guide to the best wines of both the New and the Old Worlds. Each wine is organised alphabetically by country alongside ratings to allow the reader to choose the perfect wine for any occasion. Included is a guide to pairing wine with food and a bargain wine finder.
I purchased this guide for my husband. He is very interested in wines and is always seeking information about wine. He finds this very useful and informative. He highly recommends it.
Almost Perfect

Well organized and informationally complete and associated with one of my favorite magazines. I like the simplified rating system for quality and price. However, it lacks any reference to Michigan wines which I have personally found to be as interesting and varied as many others, some at appreciably higher prices. Next year I want to see a broader range of U.S. wines. Also the wine pairings section is a bit snobbish in the sense that a more liberal interpretation might be acceptable. Let's not be snobbish.
A Must Have

The new wine guide is unbeleivable (great new format)- kudos to Mr. Giglio. It is easy to get lost buying wine and this guide really helps you sort out the best wines @ the best value. A great gift for all of the sommeliers in training!
