Good Book?

[wondersofwine]

The World Atlas of Wine by Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson or Oxford Companion to Wine and Oxford Companion to the Wines of North America are good references past the novice stage. (For novices I recommend Wine for Dummies and Andrea Immer Robinson's Great Wine Made Simple.) It also pays to get more specialized books about your region of greatest interest such as a book on Burgundies or on Spanish wines, German wines, Italian wines, California wines, etc.
