  This guide to the wines of the world shows how and where they are made and who makes them best. The book details how to decipher wine labels, how to taste wine and store it and how to match wines with different foods. Descriptions of the major grape varieties are included, and an explanation of the process by which grapes on the vine are converted into the wine in your glass. The book takes the reader on a tour around the world's wine-producing countries. Informative maps help the reader to locate the famous and less-well-known styles of wine being produced in each region, and the author identifies today's top wine-makers. A question-and-answer section at the end of the book deals with some of the more commonly-asked questions about wine.
