Great Fine Wine
Burgundy for kings, champagne for duchesses, claret for gentlemen.
C. Vanderah Great read if you want to drill down into Brunello Di Montlacino. This is not for generalist. If you're well past wine geekdom 101 and want to get serious about a particular region like Brunello Di Montalcino, this is a must read. I already have three "encylopedia of wine" books that do a decent job of skiming every region on the planet. Lately, I'm prefering to buy and read books that dig more deeply into a particular region I already love like Burgundy or one I want to know a lot more about. I don't think I'm being a wine snob when I say this book is not for casual wine drinkers...
Alberto G. Bertolin These are probably fine.. These are probably fine... as regular glasses. The problem is that I specifically looked for shatter resistant glasses for the patio. It has to stand a reasonable chance of surviving at least one drop. I dont see how "shatterproof" these glasses can be if they cant survive shipping while individually wrapped, surrounded in bubble wrap inside a box within another box. Again, Im not looking for the highest quality crystal, I was only looking for something that had a reasonable amount...

Tufi Neder Meyer AT LAST A NEW BOOK ON MADEIRA WINES! It had been a long time since a new book on the fascinanting wines of Madeira appeared. We are fortunate that Richard Mayson, an expert both in Port and Madeira, has published this excellent book on the subject. Complete, up-to-date, with extensive reviews of the producers, as well as of their wines, both present and of old, bringing also tasting notes and data on very antique wines, this work is a must for every lover of the island and its superb products. Highly commendable!Tufi Neder...

Kayo Parsons-Korn Good primer to get you started This is not a huge book, so it can't possibly cover everything about growing grapes and making wine. But it is a very good primer and will give you an idea of the steps involved in establishing a vineyard, growing the grapes and making wine. It is probably stronger on the growing section. Really great pictures of different trellising systems and pruning. I also liked his approach towards pest and disease management. Start with the least harmful application and only go to "hard stuff" in...
