'A thorough guide to just about everything worth drinking.' The Times 'Space for only one wine book in your life? This is it.' Howard G. Goldberg, The New York Times 'wine's answer to the Oxford English Dictionary, except it fits in your bag' Winehacker.com THE WORLD'S BESTSELLING ANNUAL WINE GUIDE Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book is the essential reference book for everyone who buys wine - in shops, restaurants, or on the internet. Now in its 49th year of publication, with 32 extra pages for this new edition, it has no rival as the comprehensive, up-to-the-minute annual guide to wine. Providing clear succinct facts and commentary on the wines, growers and wine regions of the whole world, the book also reveals which vintages to buy, which to drink and which to cellar, as well as the best growers to look for and why. Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book 2026 gives clear information on grape varieties, local specialities and how to match food with wines that will bring out the best in both. This latest edition of Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book includes a supplement on the pricing of wine, explaining why some wines are more expensive than others, the actual costs behind vineyards and winemaking, and how we can use this knowledge to buy cleverly at a time when wine prices are rising. New Yorker cartoonist, Hilary Fitzgerald Campbell, provides the illustrations.
