During a recent trip to Tuscany, I found Oz Clarke's Guide to Tuscan wines to be very superficial and not paricularly useful for the wine lover trying to experience the wines of Tuscany. There is no mention of wines from areas other that Chianti, Montalcino and Montopulciano: the wines of Lucca and Scansano are not included. Little attempt is made to discuss individual growers and wineries. The accompanying map is cumbersome and of little or no use to the traveller exploring Tuscany in pursuit its fine wines.

Besides tasting the wine is more fun than reading about it.
