The World Atlas of Wine 9th edition

€71.00

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 and subsequent editions have ensured it remains the most authoritative, must-have wine reference work available. This ninth edition will bring readers, both old and new, up to date with the fascinating and rewarding world of wine.

To reflect all the changes in the global wine scene since the last edition in 2019, 18 brand-new maps have been added to the wealth of superb cartography in the book. The incisive 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 resulting in new wine-growing in the far north of Europe and the sustainability initiatives being explored globally.

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.

Product description

"It is a reference guide, scholarly work, and a genuinely enjoyable read: three things that don't often coexist in a singular volume. Indispensable is a word that may be selected when running out of compelling word choices, but in this case, it applies with accuracy and precision. There is simply nothing else quite like it, which, for a ninth edition published across five decades, is a remarkable achievement. " - Rob Theakston, Drinkhacker

"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
