Average Rating:
 Rating: - Great book for learning about Italian WinesThis is a very detailed and useful reference for understanding more about the Italian wines and the region. I appreciate the link to the historical aspects and food pairing. Great find if you're looking to learn more about Italy and it's wines. Rating: - The definitive book about italian wineI had the hard-cover version of this book and insisted so many friends and colleagues read it I managed to lose it and had to buy another copy! Great descriptions, recipes and candid details about Italian wines-- especially wines that one can actually have a chance to purchase without a plane ticket to Italy. Rating: - Wine Writing At Its BestThe writers situate fascinating personal and societal anecdotes within the context of Italian history and culture, broadening the story of wine beyond the science of viticulture. The authors obviously have a deep grasp and appreciation of Italian wines, and convey their knowledge eloquently, yet without a hint of pretentiousness. A very enjoyable read. Rating: - excellent purchaseI liked this book a lot. The format was perfect for my taste. Every region had its own chapter, written in a very addictive and enjoyable way. Authors did not try to talk about all the producers, giving readers the option to dig deeper into any particular region by themselves, which I find enjoyable. I liked a lot guided tastings. Now I know what to look for in similar books for different countries or continent (for example a book recently purchased on South America was a disappointment). I can now understand why other reviewers said even Italians from Italy would love this book. I think this is the 2005 edition (equal to the 2002 edition, just different cover) and some wines in the tasting areas changed names or stopped doing the particular bottle. I am in the middle of discovering the new ones for the regions I am starting with. In case anybody knows about a site where the tastings are updated or would like to exchange corrections please contact me.
