Wines of Chile (Mitchell Beazley Classic Wine Library) by Richards, Peter. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781845331221.

Chile has been producing excellent wines for five centuries, but it wasnt until the 1980s that they became widely available around the world. In the first book to focus exclusively on Chilean wines, award-winning writer Peter Richards outlines the fascinating history of Chiles wine industry and explores its wide range of wine styles and wine-making techniques. With the help of ten detailed maps, he takes the reader on a tour of the countrys diverse terrains and major wine-making areas-including Maipo, Casablanca, Cachapoal, Colchagua, Maule and Elqui-and provides an extended listing of leading producers and their best wines.
