  The Champagne Guide tells you everything you need to know about how champagne is grown and made and how to buy, open, serve and store, all for less than the price of a bottle of Champagne! A fully-updated colour edition of the internationally acclaimed self-published The Champagne Guide, winner of the 2011 Louis Roederer International Champagne Writer of the Year Award for the 2011-2012 edition. The book contains fully independent assessments, with profiles and ratings, of almost 100 champagne producers - from the smallest growers to the largest houses. The wines have all been reviewed based on current tastings and the notes are accompanied by full colour label images. The 2014-2015 edition features fully updated and frank commentary on all the current issues facing Champagne: global warming, parallel imports, excessive yields, and how to avoid corked, stale and lightstruck champagnes. The Champagne Hall of Honour ranks the best producers in Champagne this year and the best champagnes of the year under $60, under $100, under $200, at any price, and the best blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, ros? and low dosage champagnes. The world's most comprehensive and up-to-date guide to Champagne, featuring all the latest, freshest releases, all tasted recently.
