Book excerpt: As New Zealanders become increasingly discerning about the wines we are buying and drinking, we are also appreciating the marvellous array of high-quality wines being produced in New Zealand. WINE IN NEW ZEALAND is a serious introduction to this complex and fascinating topic. It looks first at New Zealand as a wine-growing country, focusing on the grape varieties and on the key regions from Auckland and Northland to Central Otago. Important aspects of vineyard design and viticulture are covered, and a year in the vineyard is tracked season by season. The intricacies of winemaking are clearly explained, and the mysteries of what a winemaker actually does are revealed. A key part of the book is a wine-by-wine description of the key varieties produced in New Zealand. From Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon, from Methode Traditionelle to dessert wines, information is given on the characteristics (including regional differences and vintages), special cultivation and winemaking techniques. Useful chapters on selection and cellaring wine, keeping records, wine tasting, serving wine, and matching food and wine complete this informative and practical book. Illustrated throughout with maps, diagrams and high-quality colour photographs, this is an important addition to any wine-lover's bookshelf.

Download or read book A Guide to New Zealand Wine written by Peter Lionel Saunders and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The development of wine in New Zealand has been commented on by everyone, from politicians to returning New Zealanders. The difference in my mind, even since the first edition of this book in 1976 is noticeable. I find it very sad, however, that so many of our better wines are being consumed too young. But, consumption of wine continues to rise, despite difficult economic conditions. And interest in wine, and its enjoyment, also continues, carrying with it more and more "casual drinkers" of the product into the category of "wine lovers" who want to know more. Accordingly, the third edition of this handbook is presented to assist New Zealand wine drinkers, (and those new to, or visiting our country) with as much desire to be helpful as in the first two editions. I have been as careful as possible in my criticisms, although I have not had to be as critical with individual wines as the first year. More criticism has had to be aimed at the industry as a whole, in some areas, but I have endeavoured to be constructive wherever this has been needed. All sections in this book have been re-written, in order to stay abreast of changes and developments."--
