Oz Clarke's Wine Buying Guide 2005: The World of Wine from A-Z

Oz Clarke's Wine Buying Guide 2005: The World of Wine from A-Z

by OzClarke (Author)

Synopsis

From 1984 to 2004 OZ CLARKE'S WINE BUYING GUIDE has been the most authoritative, accessible and up-to-date guide to buying wine in the UK, the trusted bible of the wine trade and consumers alike. But, the growth in internet use has made the publication of detailed price comparisons in annual book form almost redundant. Keeping the wealth of wine recommendations and Oz Clarke's personal selections, and stripping out the historical duplication of information between POCKET WINE BOOK and the WINE BUYING GUIDE, leaves the most valuable content intact and makes this pocket-sized edition a true companion to OZ CLARKE'S POCKET WINE BOOK 2005. The guide offers readers 250 wine recommendations from 'The Wine Man', culled from the thousands he has tasted. The book contains sections on: Best Buys and Supermarket Selections - Oz Clarke's 250 favourite wines for 2005; Buying Wine on the Web; Oz Clarke's Wine Style Guide; How to Taste Wine - a step-by-step guide and finally, a Retailers' Directory - featuring the best wine retailers in the UK.
