Food and Wine Magazine's Official Wine Guide 2003

Food & Wine Magazine, the most trusted and popular publication of the pleasures of the table, brings you everything you need to choose wine like a pro! From the traditional European producers to exciting new winemakers from Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa, you'll find out exactly what's best on the market right now. And this new edition rates over 1400 wines in all-10% more than before-with expanded coverage of California and France. Ratings are easily read at a glance, and descriptions of the recommended varieties talk about taste (body, light or full flavor, acidity, tannin) in layman's language, not wine-speak.

· All price ranges included, but with a greater emphasis on inexpensive finds than ever before: a brand new Bargain Wine Index makes purchasing them a snap

· A mini-guide to terminology for describing flavor-so you can understand what "chocolate" and "oak" really mean in reference to wine.

· An expanded food and wine pairing chart, with handy cross-references to "At the Table" feature boxes.

You'll lift a delicious glass in praise of this guide!
