Devoted to dessert wines and sweet wines in their own right, this is a work of reference for those in the wine trade, but also for those with a predilection for wines of this variety. The major French wines are described and discussed at length but the wines from Italy, Germany, Austria, Hungary and Australia are also discussed. There is also a chapter on California. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
