Overview

This is the third edition of the book that challenged the wine establishment and revealed the widely available wines under $15 that beat out wines costing up to 10 times their price in blind tastings. The Wine Trials 2011 features full-page reviews of 175 all-new wines for 2010, based on completely new blind tastings of the latest vintages, with a special focus on up-and-coming value wine regions like Portugal and Greece. Each review includes a cheeky, unpretentious discussion of each wine’s flavors and aromas, and a photo of the bottle for easy identification.
