Andrea Immer's Wine Buying Guide for Everyone

Andrea Immer, one of America's foremost wine authorities, made understanding wine simple in her previous book. Now, she reinvents the wine buying guide with this ratings survey of the 350 top-selling wines in America. Other wine guides focus on expensive, obscure, and often unavailable bottles, perpetuating the elitism and intimidation that often surrounds wine. Immer's entries have been chosen by culling supermarket scanning data and distributor sales information to cover the country's most popular and readily available wines. Focusing on the criteria people care most about--taste, value for the money, and buying and serving context (could I give this wine as a gift?)--this book tells wine purchasers exactly what to expect from the bottles they're considering.
