Please consider posting your list of reference books, particularly those you find most useful.



Thanks.

You're welcome! But in fact, this wisdom came from a trip to the Douro with George Sandeman (and from talks with Dirk van der Niepoort); I don't remember having read abiout it in one of my reference books.

Impossible thing. I never did a count, but the number of wine books on my shelves might exceed 500.

The ones I look into most are:

General works:

- J. Robinson, Oxford Wine Companion

- H. Johnson, Wine Atlas

- F. Schoonmaker, Encyclopaedia of Wine

- M. Broadbent, The Great Vintage Wine Book (I & II), Vintage Wine

- E. Peynaud, Le Goût du Vin

For specific regions

- Parker, Bordeaux

- Pitiot & Poupon, Atlas des Grands Vignobles de Bourgogne

HTH,
