"The World Atlas of Wine is the single most important reference book on the shelf of any wine student." - Eric Asimov, New York Times"Simply superb work... buy it if you like wine at all." - Victoria Moore, Telegraph"The most useful single volume on wine ever published... If I owned only one wine book, it would be this one." - Andrew Jefford, Decanter***Few wine books can be called classic, but the first edition of The World Atlas of Wine made publishing history when it appeared in 1971. It is recognized by critics as the essential and most authoritative wine reference work available. This ninth edition will bring readers, both old and new, up to date with the world of wine.To reflect all the changes in the global wine scene since the last edition in 2019, new maps have been added to the wealth of superb cartography in the book. The text has been given a complete overhaul to address the topics of most vital interest to today's wine-growers and drinkers including the impact of climate change and the sustainability initiatives.With beautiful photography throughout, Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson, the world's most respected wine-writing duo, working with esteemed maps editor Julia Harding, have once again joined forces to create a classic that no wine lover can afford to be without.
