A PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO WINE TOGETHER
I love Champagne by Peter Liem: he delves into each region better than any other resource I've seen. Oz Clarke's Bordeaux is good too for getting to know each appellation and producer in-depth.
Sherry, Manzanilla & Montilla also by Peter Liem. NZ Winegrowers also has a downloadable text book: https://www.nzwine.com/en/media/resources/textbook/ and Celia Hay wrote one for NZ wines as well: https://www.celiahay.com/product/newzealand-wine-guide.
Vino Italiano by David Lynch and Joe Bastianich.
When I was hired to work as a rep for an Italian supplier in Denver, my boss told me to get this book. It is an excellent resource for Italian wines in general.
Italian wine knowledge is my Achilles heel! I'll have to get this.
@Kathryn Peterson I agree with @Lisa Graziano CSW, CSE Vino Italiano is a great way to understand the individual states which I feel for Italy is crucial for knowing all the different names of grapes and regions.
It's a good one, Italy is tough!
Amber revolution is truly what's dove me into my eastern European fascination. But champagne and sherry by Liem are both incredible. Also, articles! And Instagram, I've learned so much just by following some of my favorite producers on social media
Inside Burgundy by Jasper Morris is the best for that subject.
Certainly the Wine Atlas is a great reference for maps and general knowledge.
