Description

The Wines of New Zealand uncovers the diversity of this isolated yet innovative wine-producing country.

From the planting of the first vines in 1819, the latest addition to the Classic Wine Library series recounts the history and struggles of the early winemakers and its rise to fame as a Sauvignon Blanc superstar. This comprehensive yet approachable guide to the current New Zealand wine scene gives readers an in-depth knowledge of the country’s unique geography and climate, its most popular grape varieties, the key wine-producing regions and wineries. For those planning a visit to New Zealand, the tourism chapter provides insider information on the best places to go from the winterless north to the Alpine south.

The Wines of New Zealand is an indispensable reference for all readers from the wine novice to the trade professional.

What are people saying about this book?

I expected to zap through it pretty quickly. (I’m not a huge fan of Sauvignon Blanc, so I was hoping to skim read two thirds of it, to be honest.) Well damn that Rebecca Gibb. She has a story in her pen. I even read the bits on Sauvignon Blanc

– Tamlyn Currin, jancisrobinson.com

Gibb’s mastery of this material is easy to appreciate, but it is her contagious enthusiasm that comes through most clearly

– Mike Veseth, The Wine Economist

Her writing style is fresh, accessible, and shows her depth of knowledge, expressed with clarity, and connects with the human side of both the reader and the subjects

Raymond Chan
