"Space for only one wine book in your life? This is it" - Howard G Goldberg The New York Times
Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book 2014 is the essential reference book for everyone who buys wine - in shops, restaurants, or on the internet. Now in its 37th year of publication, it has no rival as the comprehensive up-to-the minute annual guide.
Hugh Johnson provides clear succinct facts and commentary on the wines, growers and wine regions of the whole world. He reveals which vintages to buy, which to drink and which to cellar, which growers to look for and why. Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book gives clear information on grape varieties, local specialities and how to match food with wines that will bring out the best in both.
