Hi everyone... i love reading about wine - but i find it hard to curl up in the sun for hours reading a text book with all the ins and outs of malolatic fermentation and guyot pruning techniques!
Therefore i have begun reading more novel inspired wine books, such as The Widow Clicquot and I have recently purchased Nobel Rot by William Echikson. I was just wondering if anyone has read anything good that they can highly recommend for a lazy Sunday arvo??

Have you had a look at Michael Cooper's Wine Atlas of NZ? It's a coffee table book, but it makes a very interesting read if you love wine.

Thanks Vaughn, i should get a copy of that, at the moment i just have The World Atlas of Wine on my coffee table, and i agree they are good books to have round. Let me know if you come across any more good ones !
