Incomplete Guide
18 July 2003
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
As an avid reader on Spanish wines, I find this book fairly uninteresting and incomplete. Sure there are lots of wine reviews and descriptions, so if you're looking for a general wine guide on Spain, this is fine. But some topics are spotty, such as Alvaro Palacios, who is one of the top and most exciting winemakers in all of Spain - the only thing on him is on his wines - nothing on him at all. The Wines of Spain is a much more interesting and complete book

Good overall background on the wines of spain, covering all of the major wine regions and grape varieties. Author writes with clarity from considerable experience. Found it useful as a resource for learning more about Spanish wine.

A Knowlegable Guide to Spain

A very helpful guide to the wines of Spain if one is familiar with Spain and its geography. Would recommend purchasing a copy prior to a visit to Spain for use as Spainsh wines are sampled. Found the book helpful in buying wines and communicating with wine merchants. Especially helpful if one is searching for "el vino blanco".
