I can't believe how overpriced this book is. I blame academia. There is good information here for someone that is new to wine but holy price tag batman! There are plenty of other quality texts for half what you'd pay for this one.

I used this book for a wine tasting class and it was so helpful! Granted there is a lot of information and you have to sort through it, but I can definitely see myself using it in the future.

this was a textbook for my husband's food and wine pairing class - it worked great to go along with the course syllabus

I was fortunate enough to attend a class taught by Mr. Laloganes, where he of course used this as the textbook. The class was an absolute delight, and the book has become my dogeared go-to for all things wine, especially when I'm introducing wine to friends and family members.Though presented as a textbook, the language isn't terribly formal, and the information is presented in a very approachable manner. It's practical for the student, but comfortable enough to be read leisurely. John takes the time and care to make wine approachable, explaining the history, process, and technicalities of wine-making, as well as explaining the subtle nuances of how things such as time, location, and method really effect the end product (as well as the price tag).I enjoyed (and learned from) this book so much, I'm looking forward to purchasing his next book.

It explains a lot clearly and its easy to use the book has pretty pictures you can look at .Good choice the instructor made
