by Oz Clarke (Author), Steven Spurrier (Author)
CLARKE & SPURRIER'S FINE WINE GUIDE is designed to be the ultimate ready-reference to the world's best wines: a connoisseur's bible. Whether buying, reviewing past purchases, eating out or travelling abroad, every fine wine lover needs constantly to look up the best producers and vintages. CLARKE & SPURRIER's book, with its authoritative evaluations, handy, stylish format and weath of information and recommendations has become the standard reference of its kind. Organised by country and wine regions, it covers only the world's best wines - though not necessarily 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. Included are all the names to look out for (growers, estates and key wine zones), personal recommendations from both the authors, up-to-date profiles of producers and regions, detailed vintage and maturity information including year-by-year assessments.
