  • Series Description
  • Series Key Features
  • Everything you could possibly want to know about wine, in one fully up-to-date A-Z volume!

    The Oxford Companion to Wine is a uniquely comprehensive and in-depth A-Z reference book on every aspect of wine: more than 4,000 entries covering topics from history through geography, geology, soil science, viticulture, winemaking, packaging, academia, technology, and regulations to people and places, tasting, writing, and the language of wine. The system of cross-references takes the reader from one entry to another, showing how all these topics are interconnected in the fascinating story of wine in its most traditional and modern forms.This new fifth edition, which benefits from the knowledge and experience of over one hundred new contributors, all experts in their field or geographical region, is expanded by 272 new entries, and every existing entry has been reviewed, updated, and polished. The text is more international than ever, written for wine lovers of every persuasion, including those who love wine but want to know more in order to increase their enjoyment of this endlessly fascinating liquid, and those who are intent on studying wine, professionally or privately. This is a huge treasure trove of knowledge, for the first time breaking the barrier of one million words, but the alphabetical format and the links between the entries make it easily navigable, and the language, while not shying away from complex science, is intended to open the door to every curious reader looking for answers on every question they have ever wanted to ask about wine.

    • Includes, for the first time, entries on countries such as Estonia, Latvia, and Finland—places previously considered too cold for quality winemaking—as well as Gabon, Senegal, and Uganda.
    • Provides deeper and more extensive coverage on North American wine, with 15 authors working to cover the continent from California to Nova Scotia, from Alaska to Arkansas, and over to Hawaii. Mexico is given far more attention, a reflection of a burgeoning wine industry that's received to date very little recognition.
    • Addresses the increased interest in sustainability, explaining in detail the many ways both producer and consumer can participate.
    • Presents new research that changes and expands our understanding of the wine world, from the DNA profile of a wine grape, or the effects of colonialism on the Algerian wine industry and economy, to the application of blockchain and robotics to making and selling wine.
    • Reveals new insights into the complex chemistry of winemaking and how it affects taste, both positively and negatively. It describes current trends and fashions in wine styles and wine consumption that are always changing.
