The Best Comprehensive Wine Guide Ever!

If there's one wine reference the serious wine drinker should have at hand, I can't  recommend highly enough the latest edition of Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book 2017 - 40th Anniversary Edition.  I've been purchasing the yearly editions every few years since 2001, and unlike all those annoying updates on the computer, this guide gets better and better. 

In addition to expertly informative yet succinct descriptions of wines, winemakers and wine regions from around the world, each edition includes a special section on a particular aspect of wine which is beautifully illustrated in color. The 2017 edition features "40 Wine Stories," highlighting wine styles or varietals from both the Old World and the New World. It makes for fascinating and enlightening reading for the wine connoisseur.There's even an expanded section on virtually every wine-producing state in the US, including Pennsylvania!

Also included in the annual editions is very useful information on food and wine pairings, vintage ratings, wine terminology and endless tidbits about producers, regions and classifications.  All in all, it's chock full of almost everything you need to know to assess, learn about and appreciate wines in a concise, authoritative and no B.S. format.  All this for the incredibly low price of $16.99!  It's the best investment you'll every make to enhance your wine experience!
