Summary
"A companion is a wonderful thing and this one is no exception. Its unique combination of depth, breadth, and links between subjects is a perfect companion for anyone travelling through the world of wine, for those who are fascinated by it and those who just love it, for pleasure seekers as much as for students.

The greatest challenge is knowing that even before the ink is dry, we will have started a file on possible updates for the 6th edition"--
