Riesling
Riesling Renaissance (Mitchell Beazley Drink)
Riesling has enjoyed a recent leap in reputation, and this illuminating guide celebrates its fascinating history. It covers all nine countries and fifteen regions that produce this delicious wine, with detailed accounts of the world’s top producers—including vital information on specific vineyard sites, production methods, and range of wines. There are reviews of the best vintages, as well as recommendations for the best wines to drink now. More than fifty color photographs illustrate a diversity of landscapes, and ten maps locate the top vineyard sites.
Riesling (Guides to Grape Varieties)
This book deserves to be in the library of any wine lover. It gives all the major producers of this much-maligned but noble varietal from Australia, Austria, Canada, France (notably the Alsace region), Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Russia (!), and the USA. This author’s writing style is erudite and intelligent without being the least bit snobbish or elitist.
