New Zealand’s most comprehensive
wine guide from its most
acclaimed wine writer!
Designed to
help the buyer to make informed choices about the best quality wines available,
this title is firmly established as the most authoritative and sought-after
guide to New Zealand wines. Updated yearly with new tasting notes and ratings,
this is a ‘must-have’ publication for the new initiate and the established
wine-buff alike.
Divided by
grape variety to help selection, this comprehensive guide includes vintage
ratings, star ratings for quality, and a dryness/sweetness guide. Other
features include Classic Wines: wines that consistently achieve an outstanding
level of quality for at least three vintages. We have now had over 25 years of Michael Cooper’s Buyer’s Guide.
