Publisher's Synopsis
This way to learn about wine focusses on the most important element which dictates taste - the grape. Eleven grapes account for 80% of quality wine throughout the world, so understanding their characteristics makes choosing a wine one likes easier. In a series of guides, the authors explain the grapes, where they are grown and how the wines differ from one region to another. Style, taste, vintage and price guidance are all available at a glance. By comparing blind different wines from the same grape, the prejudice of the label is removed, and one can discover which one prefers.
