Customer Reviews

Well worth it, but..
This is a fantastic resource, but looks at the wine world from a somewhat different perspective that most Americans are used to. Scandinavian and English vintage ratings - you've got it. One region in the US has one rating for vintages from
NY to Virginia to Michigan.

Hey, but for the price? It's worth it, particularly for the French, Italian, and Spanish ratings and commentaries. And it's great fun to read about, I don't know, Scandinavian and English wines. And from lonely outposts in France. Then there's Hungary, and Austria, Greece, non-port Portugal. You get the idea.

I'll get the 2010 when it comes out.

The best way to stay up to date on the world of wine
Without a doubt, each vintage of Stevenson's Wine Report is an indispensable resource for wine novices and pros alike. I have found no better source of information that is accurate, concise and unbiased that gets you down into the great regions of the world with class, depth and detail. It would take countless hours of research, translation and tasting to compile enough notes that would go into half of this book. Along with the Wine Atlas and the Oxford Companion, this is a must have addition to any serious student's wine library.

Best Wine Update Around
The Wine Report is an excellent professional reference. Every Fall I pre-order the next edition to ensure I keep up-to-date with the wine world. The Wine Report is not something I would recommend for most consumers, however, it is a MUST HAVE for all sommeliers or avid enthusiasts.
