His knowledge and experience are unique, and they are made available to every wine lover once again. It is the only book to provide expert information on vintages from all the major wine regions of the world. Weather conditions, changes in winemaking techniques and even historical events that might influence the particular vintage are described. The greatest detail is given to the vintages most likely to be available now, but notes on classic vintages from as far back a 1890 make fascinating reading. Given to each vintage is an overall quality rating on a scale of one to five.
