Book Reviews of World Atlas of Wine
Book Review: A Master's Secret...
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a Master of Wine Student. I have own 5 editions of this atlas during my wine career. I thought I wouldn't need to upgrade to this new edition because, well, honestly, I didn't think this book could tell me any more than I already knew. Wow, I was wrong. The details of New World regions alone is reason to buy this book. The maps are always the BEST, but now they are more informative and more realistic of the wine world at large. You can also see the maps on the [...] site, but the book is still a great reference.Book Review: Amazing atlas of wine
Summary: 4 Stars
I absolutely love this book. However, the reason why I gave it only 4 stars is because this is the second time I've ordered it and it came without the CD. Otherwise, I find it fulfills all of my expectations. I often browse through it with my husband while opening a new bottle at the dinner table. This allows us to peak through sections of the book as desired. Most books this size make great coffee table props, which people don't even read. This one is meant to be read. Great text, great pictures, well organized!Book Review: The World Atlas of Wine
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for my cousin's 60th birthday. She lives in Tacoma (I'm in AZ) and she owns a wine shop. Her husband and her love to discover different wines throughout the world that they can introduce to their patrons. Upon receiving her present, she immediately called me with an enthusiastic THANK YOU!! She LOVES this book.
I know this book must be terrific if she says it is so!
I am looking forward in visiting her this summer and i look forward in seeing The world Atlas of Wine myself!
Book Review: Thanks for the purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I looked the book through in my friend's house long ago but could not read: this was Dutch edition. Now, I wanted to have this excellent book at hand in my home and in a readable form. To my great satisfaction, the book became even more rich in content and maps. So, I am happy to have now a possibility to locate not only any of my favorite wines but also wines new for me with which I got acquainted just recently.Book Review: The World Atlas of Wine: Completely Revised and Updated, Sixth Edition (World Atlas of Wine)
Summary: 5 Stars
I discovered this book while visiting Burgundy last year.
It was part of the limited offerings available near the Hospice.
Considering the size of the book, I decided to wait until I returned to the USA to purchase it.
The book offers a detailed review of everything from how wine is produced to the details of each terroir around the world. I believe this book is a must have for wine enthusiasts.
