It would be difficult to go past the Australian Wine Guide...it's been revised and updated, complete with the newest....and winery visiting recommendations for each region." Huon Hooke, Good Living, Sydney Morning Herald- 11th October 2011 “The Australian Wine Guide 5th Edition is a great read. In terms of the level of knowledge that we want to achieve with the average team member, this is it! We see this potentially as a handy tool to upgrade their wine knowledge in a rather short and structured period of time. Congratulations, a great book!” Koert Grobler National Training Manager, Vintage Cellars, November 2011 "I love wine books. I love reading them and collecting them. I really enjoyed reading this one.
