5.0 out of 5 stars An encaptulation of the Australian Wine Growing Regions, July 21, 1999
By A Customer
The author has successfully brought to paper an encaptulation of the Wineries,Wine regions and Grape Varieties of Australia and NewZealand.

Highlighted are the wineries in each region, the regions in each State and the success of each region in growing grape type. It covers aspects such as climate, terrior and any region specifics.

The book is of interest to the novice and more experienced wine hobbiest, as a valuable reference guide.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tasting notes and nothing else!, July 24, 1998
By A Customer
I would not recommend this book unless you are a frequent auction buyer.It does not say anything about the viticulture or th vinification of the classic wines-just Hallidays tasting notes.
