Wine Folly: The Essential Guide to Wine

Perfect for you if...

You're curious about wine but find most guides intimidating or assume you need years of study to understand it.
You want a reference book you'll actually return to, with practical advice on what to buy and why, not just theory.
You collect wines or work in hospitality and need an authoritative, beautifully illustrated resource to deepen your knowledge.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a quick-read wine guide to skim on holiday; this is 900+ pages of proper depth.
You prefer minimalist design and sparse writing; MacNeil's style is verbose and personal, which some find chatty.
You exclusively drink natural or biodynamic wines and want an advocate for those movements; this is a balanced, classical approach.
