With the publication of his first book, Wine, Johnson established himself at the age of twenty-seven as the most refreshing and authoritative voice on the subject. His winning formula of insight, critical appraisal of the world of wine, plus valuable vintage news and wine recommendations has been often-imitated but never bettered. First published in 1977, his Pocket Wine Booksells hundreds of thousands of copies a year. HUGH JOHNSON is the world’s pre-eminent writer on wine.

With beautiful photography throughout, Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson, the world’s most respected wine-writing duo, have once again joined forces to create a classic that no wine lover can afford to be without.

The text has been given a complete overhaul to address the topics of most vital interest to today’s wine-growers and drinkers. To reflect all the changes in the global wine scene over the past six years, the Atlas has grown in size to 416 pages and 22 new maps have been added to the wealth of superb cartography in the book. This eighth edition will bring readers, both old and new, up to date with the world of wine.

It is recognized by critics as the essential and most authoritative wine reference work available.
