If you like the sound of intense, blackcurranty reds or aromatic whites, this book will tell you how to find these flavours in the wines you buy, regardless of whether the wine is labelled by grape variety or by country. Drinking wine is all about enjoyment. In this new digital edition, Oz explains how to get maximum enjoyment out of every bottle you buy, from dealing with broken corks, to learning basic tasting techniques, spotting faulty wine, and matching food and wine, whether at home or in a restaurant. In Ozs down-to-earth guide to all the worlds major wine regions youll find everything you need to know to navigate your way round a wine shop or wine website. Oz explores grape varieties, flavours and styles, giving equal consideration to classic wine regions such as Bordeaux and Chianti and the newer wine-producing countries such as New Zealand, Australia, Chile and Argentina. Do vintages matter? Are the wines good value for money? Oz tells you everything you really need to know. Gradually building your knowledge with expert tips, information boxes and wines to try, this is a complete guide for the beginner wine enthusiast.

Citações

  • Nadia Zelenkovafez uma citaçãohá 6 anos
    The best wines usually come from the Mosel (lighter, tangier, slatier wines); the Rheingau (weightier, riper); the Rheinhessen (softer, and with only a small proportion of its vineyards dedicated to good quality); and the Pfalz (big ripe wines, often from Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and others as well as Riesling). Baden wines, white or red, should be good – the Pinot family is more important here than Riesling – and Franken has impressive dry Silvaner, Riesling and Müller-Thurgau.

    Grapes Riesling makes the best wines, in a tangy though not green style; Scheurebe is fragrant and grapefruity; Pinot Blanc (or Weissburgunder) is less tangy and more nutty; Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder or Ruländer) is honeyed and smoky; Silvaner is dry and neutral. Traminer (Gewürztraminer) is floral. Müller-Thurgau is generally undistinguished. The best red is Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder).
    Local jargon Trocken – dry. Halbtrocken – off-dry. Sekt – sparkling wine. VDP – an organization of quality wine estates.

    Location High-quality wines come from Barossa, Eden and Clare Valleys, Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra and Limestone Coast. There are plenty of exciting new regions, especially along the coast in the Limestone Coast zone. Riverland is the bulk-wine region.
