Vines for Wines  by George Kerridge
Vines for Wines will expand the wine lover’s knowledge and appreciation of a range of wines and help them to explore varieties, blends, flavours and styles.

The tasting terms and wine notes for each variety provide a benchmark for the consumer to assess the quality of wines they drink.

Australian and New Zealand Wine for Dummies  by Maryann Egan
The fun and easy way to say gidday to wine from Down Under Australia is now the world’s fourth largest wine exporter, and it sends 30 percent of its exports 175 million liters in 2004 to the U.S. Its Pacific Rim neighbor, New Zealand, has seen wine exports to the U.S. rise from 145,000 liters in 1995 to over 7.2 million in 2004.

Flavours of Melbourne ISBN 1862547629 new ISBN 9781862547629

Flavours of Melbourne  by Charmaine O’Brien
Almost every travel or lifestyle article about Melbourne highlights the city’s culinary assets as amongst its most significant attractions. Although I cringe slightly when I read hyperbolic descriptions of Melbourne as a city at the ‘height of gastronomic excellence’, I generally agree that Melbourne is a great place to eat. There may not be any Michelinbadged restaurants but in terms of diversity of eating places and styles of cuisine, affordability, and the consistent availability of good quality produce, coffee and wine, Melbourne can justifiably claim a ranking amongst the world’s notable food cities
