"I searched the internet for hours before finding your site and that's all I needed. I found gifts for 2 family members and a my 2 couple friends who are wine enthusiasts and came in well under budget. The items arrived in perfect condition in 2 days and I was even able to use my existing Amazon account to order. I will definitely order again!"
-Francine L., Midvale UT
"My son just built a bar in his basement and needed a wine rack to keep under the counter. Your site had just what I needed and the customer service was fast and polite. I know he'll get many great years of use out of this. Thanks!"

| |  | Wine Collecting | Home » » » Collecting Wine: You and Your Cellar | | | | | | | Description: | | There is no greater pleasure than sharing a fine bottle of wine with friends. On the other hand there's no greater disappointment than opening a bottle that has been lovingly hoarded and finding that the wine is past its prime. Was the storage of the wine at fault or was it simply a poor bottle? Why had the level of the wine in the bottle dropped so dramatically and why did the cork fall apart upon extraction? How should wine be selected and what storage conditions will provide the most suitable enviroment for them? There is no-one better qualified to answer these questions than Australia's foremost wine expert and wine writer James Halliday. In this completely updated new edition he discusses the problems a bottle may encounter during its life and how to minimise them; how to choose white and red wines for cellaring; and the most efficient cellar racking systems. All this information is woven around Halliday's own irresistible tales venerable bottles and never-to-be-forgotten dinners. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

 Rambling but interesting...Aug 02, 1999
Not much help for a casual student of wine looking to begin a cellar, but still an interesting read. He tends to focus very much on Australian wines (since he is from that land) and speaks mostly of wines that none of us can get, much less afford.

 wonderful overview about cellaringMay 21, 1999
By changst@tpts4.seed.net.tw
As a beginner to cellaring I enjoyed reading this book very much. It affords all important informations about every aspects of cellaring. The authors' special collecting experience(15000 bottles or more!) and tasting experience(old wine up to one or 2 centuries) was great and made me wondering about every bottle in my small cellar cabinet. I appreciated his comments about the cellaring potential of various grape varieties, and especially had a new understanding about white wines. Many information on Australian wines, too. Very interesting and wonderful. Good for everyone liking to collect wines.
