Publishers Text

New world wines (defined as the wines of Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the USA, Canada, Chile and Argentina) have taken the wine industry by storm. In this manual, wine expert Julie Arkell explains what makes the new world wines different, how their production and viticulture affects the flavours and quality achieved and how each country has distinctive characteristics that make its wines different from those of the old world. The buyer's guide offers advice on drinkers and keepers in all price ranges. Julie Arkell discusses the wines country by country, adding comprehensive information about leading and innovative vineyards, the characteristics to look out for and the individual wines to buy. Illustrated with colour photography as well as with maps of the wine-growing areas, this should be a useful guide to wines of the new world.
