Introduction
This electronic wine guide provides ratings for hundreds of wine producers and over 8,000 wines based on Parker’s Wine Buyer’s Guide. Wine producers are rated by stars (one to five), five being “outstanding.” Wines are rated by numbers (50 to 100). You can find the perfect wine instantly by variety name, country, area, growing region, producer rating, vintage, price range, wine color, and rating range.

“This book is both an educational and buying manual; it is not an encyclopedic listing of wine producers and growers. It is intended to make you a more formidable, more confident wine buyer....You should be confident in the knowledge that you will rarely make a mistake (unless, of course, the vintage is absolutely dreadful) if you go with a producer judged “outstanding” or “excellent.” (From Parker’s Wine Buyer’s Guide, 3rd ed.)
