Aiming to help readers to find choosing wines an easier and enjoyable activity, this book is divided into four sections: winemaking and handling wine; how wine is made; the major grape varieties; and the world of wine. It covers topics such as tasting, choosing wine to suit specific occasions, buying, vintage wines, grape varieties and their growing regions, the vineyard calendar, fermenting and transporting wine, and how wines are made from a range of individual grape varieties. Jancis Robinson is one of the world's best-loved authorities on wine. One of a handful of wine communicators with an international reputation, she has written and presented several award-winning BBC television series, and is the editor of the multi-award-winning "Oxford Companion to Wine". A respected wine judge and lecturer, Robinson was the first person outside the wine trade to pass the fiendish Master of Wine examinations, and did so on her first attempt. The coauthor with Hugh Johnson of "The World Atlas of Wine", Robinson is the author of several definitive books on wine.
