101 Best White and Rose Wines 2008

Oz Clarke, Britain's most popular wine writer, is absolutely in tune with what wine drinkers want today -- flavour, individuality, excellent value for money and wines that are readily available. Oz has tasted thousands of wines over the past year and here are his tips for good value whites and roses for the coming spring and summer. Oz has chosen over 100 real wines, not faceless brands, wines with individuality and a sense of their origins. There's no need for such wines to cost the earth -- it's just a matter of knowing where to look and in this book Oz has done the hard work for you. All the still white and rose wines in the book cost less than a tenner, with most of the wines nearer the GBP5 mark so there are plenty of memorable flavours out there for you to try without breaking the bank. We love fizz in this country and the longer the sun stays out, the more we drink of it. Oz has selected his favourite Champagnes that deliver top flavours at decent prices, as well as good-value sparklers, both white and rose, at less than GBP15 a bottle, and there are even two black sparkling Shirazes as a final treat.
