Description:
Published in 1994 to worldwide acclaim, the first edition of Jancis Robinsons seminal volume, The Oxford Companion to Wine, immediately
attained legendary status. The book has won every major wine book award including the Glenfiddich and Julia Child/IACP awards, and Robinson
hasa received writer and woman of the year accolades for its editor on both sides of the Atlantic.Combining meticulously-researched fact with
refreshing opinion and wit, The Oxford Companion to Wine offers almost 4,000 entries on every wine-related topic imaginable, from regions and
grape varieties to the owners, connoisseurs, growers, and tasters in wine through the ages; from viticulture and oenology to the history of wine.
Tracing the consumption and production from the ancient world to the present day, the Companion is a remarkable resource for gaining further
appreciation for a beverage whose popularity has only increased with time.Now exhaustively updated, this third edition incorporates the very latest
international research to present over 400 new entries on topics ranging from globalization and the politics of wine to brands, precision viticulture,
and co-fermentation. Hundreds of other entries have also undergone major revisions, including yeast, barrel alternatives, climate change, and
virtually all wine regions. Useful lists and statistics are appended, including controlled appellations and their permitted grape varieties, as well as
wine production and consumption by country.Illustrated with maps of every important wine region in the world, useful charts and diagrams, and
stunning color photography, this Companion is unlike any other wine book, offering an understanding of wine in its many wider contexts - notably
historical, cultural, geographic, and scientific - and serving as a truly companionable point of reference into which any wine-lover can dip, browse,
and linger.

I have only had this book for a few weeks now, but it has already really come in handy. Whenever you get a new wine from a new area, you can
quickly look up factoids and info. It really makes drinking new wines more enjoyable to know some info about what you are getting.Understand
though, that this is essentially an encylcopedia/reference book, not something you would sit around and read casually (unless you read
Encyclopedias casually).The book also contains some nice regional information with maps, so some of the more obscure new world wines become
more accessible with this book in hand.Finally, this is an excellent gift for any wine lover...they will certainly get use and enjoyment out of it.
