  Clarke & Spurrier's FINE WINE GUIDE is the ultimate guide to the world's best wines. Every lover and collector of fine wines needs to look up the best producers or vintages in order to make quick evaluations - when buying or reviewing past purchases, eating out, or when travelling. Wine writers Oz Clarke and Steven Spurrier have joined forces and drawn on their vast personal knowledge and years of tasting experience to put together this connoisseur's bible. The guide is organized by country and wine region and covers only the world's best wines - though not necessarily the best known - in an easy-to-use format of at-a-glance lists of the best wines, best vineyards, best producers and other essential information, followed by more detailed A-Z lists of the top wine names and top producers within each region or country. The information is fully cross-referenced within each section, so that it is possible to locate a wine recommendation by way of the wine name, the cru, the grower or the year. There is also a comprehensive index to help you quickly find thousands of recommended wines and producers.
