Product Description
Based on the phenomenal success of Food & Wine Magazine's Official Wine Guide 1998, International wine expert, author, editor and columnist Stephen Tanzer and Food & Wine magazine present the Official Wine Guide 1999. This year's wine guide gives the high falutin topic of wine a sexy and exciting new spin.

Readers are given intelligent advice and research oriented in a no-nonsense, convenient format. Using the Official Wine Guide 1999 is as simple as choosing a restaurant in the immensely popular Zagat's Restaurant Survey. Icons, brief descriptions, pricing information and short commentary on quality and value make this guide a "must have" for the novice who wants to know more about wine, as well as for the seasoned wine expert who needs information at a glance.
