  Covering nearly 50 varieties of wine from Europe, the USA and Australia, this volume uses clear graphic charts to trace the life-cycle of each wine from its youth to maturity. It highlights the critical peak which a good wine sustains before declining, and allows comparisons between vintages and chateaux. The text also presents the wine lover with data that explains the character of each vintage, including weather, time of harvesting, and the decisions and policies of winemakers. Jancis Robinson has also written Jancis Robinson on the Demon Drink and Vines, Grapes and Wines .
