Drinking Culture - One: The World Atlas of Wine 8th Edition
Welcome to Drinking Culture, a new series on the OWC blog in which we indulge our literary side. Each month we'll be perusing our bookshelves and picking out one of our favourite publications to share with you.
For our first instalment, we have chosen a book that deserves pride of place in any wine lover's collection. Last October, Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson MW released the eighth edition of their seminal World Atlas of Wine, arguably the greatest wine book ever published.
