A shelf laden with good wine books will give you almost as much pleasure as a well stocked cellar. Notice I said almost. In fact books and bottles go hand in hand. You need good books to find and enjoy good wine
I think books should give pleasure as well as information. That's why love to read the books by Jennifer Rosen, for example. She is sassy, opinionated and entertaining. But it is backed up by a sound knowledge of wine.
A large part of the information on Vinodiversity has been extracted from several key wine books. Even though much information is now in digital form there is nothing quite like having a solid book in your hand.
